Our Verdict
A rare, low-mileage example that require
When purchasing a vehicle of this age with such low mileage, the primary concern is the effect of prolonged inactivity. Check for perished rubber components, including tyres, coolant hoses, and suspension bushings, as these can degrade regardless of mileage. Ensure the fuel system has been flushed if the car has sat idle for long periods.
Request a detailed service history to determine if the vehicle was maintained on a time-based schedule rather than a mileage-based one. Given the rarity of the RMD Predator, verify the availability of spare parts for the 1700cc engine and chassis before committing to the purchase.
Running costs will be influenced by the 1.7L petrol engine's fuel consumption and the vehicle's age. Road tax will be determined by the emissions standards of the year 2000, and maintenance costs may be higher than average due to the specialist nature of the RMD model and the potential difficulty in sourcing parts.
Insurance is likely to be a significant variable; as a specialist vehicle, it may require a bespoke policy rather than a standard multi-car agreement. We estimate the annual running costs, including fuel, tax, insurance, and basic maintenance, to be between £1,200 and £1,800.
Focus your inspection on the chassis and underside for signs of corrosion, which is common for vehicles from this era. Although the 2022 and 2023 MOT tests recorded no defects, older vehicles can develop leaks or structural issues between tests, especially if they have been stored for long periods.
Inspect the interior and exterior black paintwork for signs of UV damage or shrinkage, which can occur with low-use vehicles. Test all electrical components and the 1.7L engine for smooth idling and consistent power delivery, as low-mileage engines can sometimes suffer from carbon build-up or stale fluids.
This black 2000 RMD Predator is a niche vehicle with a 1.7L petrol engine and exceptionally low recorded mileage of 16,932 miles as of September 2023. The MOT history for 2022 and 2023 shows passes with no defects recorded. Due to the rarity of the model, there is no aggregate reliability data available to compare this vehicle against others of its type.
There is no aggregate MOT or reliability data available for the RMD Predator to establish a known failure pattern.
