57 is the plate number.
in the UK we have 57 and 07 representing the year 2007, one represents the first half of the year, and the other is the second half of the year.

Wow, terms across the pond are so different than ours. They get bad cars though. Bad, in a good way!

Petrol or diesel?
Anyway I think its good price (compared to croatian price).
Of course try test drive and check the whole car.

In short, I think it's OK.

P.S. If you have this "euro" sort of question post it on euro forum or find some member which lives in EU and send him a private message.

Good luck with car....
