If it's too old it won't grip as well as it should - you don't know where it might have been stored these past years... The date stamp is actually moulded into the sidewall in a rectangular window and would say something like 2605 which means the tyre was made in week 26, 2005
Ultimately it's your call...

Still can't see any date stamp and the tyre was stored in a garage. I will be careful for the first few miles when I get it fitted. Thanks for the advice and concern.

jesus no date stamp!
That would have been the 1st thing I would have asked the seller.
What's the worst that could happen? Well lets just hope nothing happens and u did get urself a bargain and not saved urself 50 quid in the short run but ultimately ur bike/health in the long run

oh as for the date stamp all modern tyres have them and as said made up of 4 digits as posted but not necessarily in a triangle.
If you cannot find them then I would suggest they have been rubbed off/doctored because they were old and the seller didn't want u to see that.
