Is 1.3 IMA a good used buy in principle?

[saxofrog]

Never bought a hybrid or electric before and uneasy about battery condition.

What sort of battery degradation should I expect from a 7-10 year old IMA Jazz? Is it basically going to be a petrol engine dragging round a dead battery? Am I potentially signing up for an immediate up front batt replacement cost?

Draw your own conclusion from https://clubjazz.org/forum/index.php?topic=4978.60. I don't know how much years, rather than miles, affects the battery.
