Having checked the MOT history, I'm going to give the owner the benefit of the doubt here, and take it to mean it's only done approx 1000 miles per year in the second owner's ownership - which, going back to 2006, is true.

To be fair though, it looks in great condition for an unrestored 60 year old car... (60k / 1,000 per year = 60 years age)

Wonderful. Absolutely wonderful.
As I get older I think a lot about the hereafter - I go into a room and then wonder what I'm here after.
