But if the cambelt hasn't been changed, is it still a good idea to buy as it could be a sign that the car has not been maintained in terms of regular servicing?

They are the only pics hes got. So the cambelt should have been changed in Japan, how will i know if it has or hasn't? Its a concern as he may be driving it back from the port its at and with the mileage and possibly no cambelt change, it could snap

Hello all I'm new to this site and wanting to buy a Glanza V Turbo very soon. Anyway a lad i know has just rang me this morning to let me know that a Glanza has arrived in the UK. He's sent me a few pics and its all standard and in Black, manual. However what i'm concerned about is that it has done 72,000 miles, which is approx 115,000km. Seems a bit high compared to that other Glanza's have done when they come in as fresh imports. The second concern is that he's told me that its going to cost me £3,200 which includes the car, shipping costs and import duty, however this excludes MOT, road tax, registration and any other costs. Due to the mileage he told me that it will require a full service and i presume this means cambelt change, what is the frequency for changing the cambelt on a Glanza??? I dont know what auction grade it is and therefore everything may not work as expected until i actually drive it. Anyway he told me that i will need to let him know sometime today if i do want it. Please provide any information and views on this and would be very much appreciated. Many thanks Ady
