Is this a decent E-bike for the cash. Seems like a bargain but don’t really want to shell that much out if it’s going to be no good.

It's cheap,but its got the old Shimano e7000 motor,whic is considered to be a bit weak
Weak as in the torque? Or just overall longevity
It's only 60nm compared to the current ep8 at 80nm.
Can't comment on reliability I'm afraid.
Good bargain here, if im not missing something.
Ive been pondering a second hand ebike. I wouldn't worry too much about the lower torque / older motor but I would want to check how repairable the motor is. I think bosch are the easiest to repair but I don't know about shimano
What are the Yamaha motors like though? You don’t see them on that many E bikes I don’t think.
Worth having a look at some of the Specialized Tubo Levos that have been discounted. Seem to be a few about
MTB monster have trek rail 5 for £3600. Also have the Orbea Rise for £3674
