so many variables in a price, for e.g.
who has completed the SH, was is next due
MOT advisories
7 owners is no way the same as 3/4
a said registered abroad at some point - where and by who
Is there previous invoices to back up the SH
what panels have been painted - if rust why and can it be caught early
when brakes last changed
is the vanos noisy
gearbox slick
clutch effective
air con work
does the car get up to temperature effectively - do the gauges work
and so on..
Negotiating without see the car, either under or over the asking price is ludicrous. I was going to see the car tonight at 8pm, but these factors mean I would not be committing to a 'dutch auction' over the phone.
I have been in a situation similar to this and have taken a bid from the person who I felt best wanted the car - this was not the highest bid by a long way.
good luck to the owner.

£15k plus seems fair and shows the prices are moving in the right direction.
I have a black 50, similar miles to this 1 but I am only the 3rd owner, it has an immaculate Service history and has just had a few panels re-sprayed to tidy it up
I'd want a good bit more than 15k for it, that is for sure.
