i am considering selling my rangie as i never drive it anymore ,i am tying to look at other cars of the same age etc for price but mine is a 2005 se with 20" Vogue wheels supercharged grill+side vents grey interior,silver outside with 75000miles
there are only a few se's on the market i was thinking £17 but i am not sure if this is optamistic?

SE... isn't that the bottom spec one?

Trouble is everyone is shopping for Vogue's, HSE at the least. You may struggle at 17K. Sorry. 

I will buy it blind for £17!!  If you have nothing nice to say,say nothing at all.

dan u got it the wrong way round it goes from bottom to top spec

AUTOBIOG

IIRC in 2005 there was SE, HSE, Vogue and for the very very rich special build Autobiographies - I had a TD6 SE from 2003/2005 2018 Mini Countryman Cooper S E All4 PHEV in Melting Silver - it’s whisper quiet in EV and polluter modes

MY UNDERSTANDING WAS AS FOLLOWS


SE
HSE
VOGUE
VOGUE SE
AUTOBIOGRAPHY

 ====================================

"Open Mike Night " sounded like a lot of fun until i found out i was going to an Autopsy

Well you learn something new every day. I thought the only SE was the one that had the word 'Vogue' in front of it.
So the basic SE was dropped some time ago then?

It might have been the lowest spec (and mine had no options as I could not afford any) but they wanted for nothing - IIRC a satnav was a £2500 extra on the SE, so I made do with a TomTom (which was probably better anyway!) I saved for 28 years to buy mine and every time I nearly had enough stashed away the price would go up again and take it just out of reach......................... so the SE was just great for me to get into L322 owning. Also I think it was only available with the TD6 engine, will check in my brochures. I remember at the time thinking I was paying a totally stupid price for a car as it cost me £42000 - more than I paid for my house! 2018 Mini Countryman Cooper S E All4 PHEV in Melting Silver - it’s whisper quiet in EV and polluter modes

I think the SE is fine, if you want something basic.

Does one have to wind one's own windows?

Although on the face of it they look the same, the spec difference side by side on paper is massive. The killer for me would be the nasty seats, the foundry finish interiour and the plastic dash etc. That's before all the tech they are missing...

Saying that, I bought my Vogue when it was 5 years old, so I can't exactly lord it over anyone who bought a brand new SE. 

This chap has Vogue SE which is better than the Standard Vogue as Mick posted!

I saw one with 50k at Saxton for £21500 so I think £17-18k about right

Not my post Gaz , it was bigL322 .........

looking on the lefthand side thingey its a 4.4 petrol SE spec, I think £17k is a bit hopeful but still a lot of car for your money

I thought the Vogue SE came out in 2006? 

That's what confuddles me although i have the 05/06 Mdl SC when i take it into any of the dealerships for the usual stuff they sometimes class it as a Vogue SE SC ........... weird ....
