If it helps, my 6 is on 83k, tax til May and MOT til Dec, and I got her for £1300. I knocked him down as there were a couple of advisories on the MOT, the suspension is knocking and the fans don't appear to work.
It does seem steep, but then everyone puts the car up for higher knowing that they will be knocked down. Really, you need to take a look at the car and see what condition it's in. The interior and exterior do look good though.
I'd be taking a look at the MOTs and seeing if there's any advisories. If there are, as you'll have to fork out you can knock him down on that. Also, if there has been any work carried out on the car previously that means it has upgraded parts.
Obviously the car is quite low mileage, so check to see if it's been sat in a garage for a period of time- can cause problems with the engines.
I'd also take someone along with you to check the exhaust and other bits, a mechanic if you can, but I'm sure there'll be some members on here willing to help
