1994 km flew from Poland to manchester to buy one last year then drove it back (2000km)that night and the next day , did the journey without a hitch, the wheel bearings packed up 2 weeks later but that was about all i had to do to the motor, i sold it about 8 months later to buy a LHD version as it doesnt look like they will change the bloody law on registering RHDs here any day soon.

haha and I was grumbling over travelling 50 miles. Need to take a rain check me thinks 
Buying privately, I don't suppose it matters, there's pretty much no reason to visit again. Buying from a main dealer, again the warranty should be ok anywhere. From an independent garage with the usual 3 months warranty? You're not going to want to travel far because the horn stops working.
Looking far and wide can get expensive over a period. But...if you find the right car...
Just spare a thought for those of us who live in the middle of nowhere. Nearest LR dealer....50 miles.
