Car is in good nick, I went and checked it out myself.
Reason I didn't take it as previous question before: It's not registered and last thing I need is the trouble getting it on the road, especially at the price he is asking, and I wasn't going to negotiate on anything I couldn't/wouldn't commit to, in other words stuff him around. I didn't get a chance to check out the underneath chassis for any previous significant accidents though (it was at night).
Good luck with the sale.
