Suggestion
If it’s been stored correctly a really good check over and a thorough recommission/new tyres etc should suffice but as you say it would have at least been wise to have evidence of a few oil changes ..as always buyer beware.

And it shouldn’t matter about how many miles it’s done things need replacing with age and especially if it’s not been used.

Suggestion
It’s a shame it’s never been used but hopefully that will change.
These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

They have always been used lightly and MOT’d but had routine servicing( often OPC)…they required little in what I would class as extra work like bushes suspension etc that a higher mileage
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

It sounds a little strange does this one. When you look at the questions on the auction site that cars never really been anywhere near a garage for a service. And it shouldn’t matter about how many miles it’s done things need replacing with age and especially if it’s not been used. Ok £3000 has just been lavished on it but that’s nothing in what should have been spent on it in its lifetime.
I've spent nearly £3k on mine in 15 months and 8500 miles...... this is well overdue some serious coin spending but it will be one hell of a C4s when it's done.
If it’s been stored correctly a really good check over and a thorough recommission/new tyres etc should suffice but as you say it would have at least been wise to have evidence of a few oil changes ..as always buyer beware.
I’ve bought a couple of low mileage 986/996 under 10k mileage) over the years. They have always been used lightly and MOT’d but had routine servicing( often OPC)…they required little in what I would class as extra work like bushes suspension etc that a higher mileage
(routinely used) car would require.
You really couldn’t differentiate them from a 1yr old car in both how they drive/ handle cosmetic and mechanical condition.
The thing that really takes its toll is our climate and the use of salt etc Things get really crusty relatively quickly unless protected nowadays.
