Has the seller said why it doesn't have one - not an enthusiast presumably

If you have 3, why not put one on \:P I thought there was a risk to belts etc if no undertray?

Oh and if you have two spare would be quite easy for the OP to buy one second hand \:D

If the car is otherwise fine then you'd be a fool not to buy one because of that alone.....

The issue in running without one is stuff getting chucked into the belts from the road - if that has happened already then you would most likely have a busted cambelt and a load of bent valves. It's not as though running without one will cause any progressive damage.
