    My opinion, it seems abit cheap for the model and year.

    However, it seems a suspicious one, with the owner wanting rid of it for a straight sale or a swap for same value or lower value plus cash.

    For a relatively cheap car what cash and lower price vehicle could you get without bthe risk of spending lots of money on a cheaer car.
