233.000 could be ex taxi with that mileage if its cheap enough buy with your eyes and do normal checks ie smoke.rattles,stop start ect could be cheap run around.

Defintely watch out for ex taxi's. clutch etc could be on the way out expensive to replace.

There is a mechanic lives near to us he has one outside he is working on now for a mini cab driver

Even a low milage one isn't to be trusted, he says some taxi drivers clock them before each mot to create a false low mileage history.

ps I only know this because I reearched a lot before recently buying one.

Nothing wrong with a taxi...

Especially if it has been licenced as a hackney carriage.
