I’ve often bought cars not knowing which it was, and don’t think it’s ever bothered me. In recent times, about 9 years ago, I bought a short term Focus diesel from a pal in the trade, think it was 11 reg, but very high mileage and cost me £2k. Belt and water pump change cost me £350, but said pal did it in his garage workshop ( where he was senior tech) on a Saturday afternoon.
I only had the car 6 months, and didn’t lose any money on it.
Just curious but does belt/ chain make any difference in this era ?
