glad you got a great bargain mate,but engine oil that has been used for only a short time collects combustion deposits,thats one of it's jobs.if the car is then not used the old oil sits on the bearings and can eat into the bearings as the oil contains acids from the running of the engine.for the sake of a few pounds you will chance knackering the engine up.ffs just change the oil and filter for safety's sake.
