Default do i or dont I?

hey people, im a new member to the forum and im lookin to purchase my first civic. I have the opportunity to buy a 1999 civic jordan. It has 31k miles and a few mods aswell, owner says its been roller roaded at 190bhp but dont know it thats true as i havent seen the print out. The owner is askin about £7000 but i thought i would seek the advice of people that really know what theyr talkin bout at least i hope u all do any advice would be great!
thanx, callum

Thats really low mileage on a 99, but if it's putting down 190 hp to the wheels, it's been modified so I would check on it's maintenance records with the owner.

by the way, what is 7000 lbs converted into US dollars?

About 2.03 dollars per pound. It's not a good time to take our US dollars abroad.

Wow... that kind of seems like a rip off actually. I don't care if it only has 31k miles, 13 thousand is a bit high for an8 year old car.
