If itās the right car in the right colour and in the condition you expect Iād be happy paying Ā£10k either private or trade - there are a lot of unloved poorly maintained dogs out there with multiple owners and little service history.

Thats the problem. Im not fussed about colour exterior or interior. I do prefer a light coloured interior. But, if a good example came up with a black interior it would not bother me.

It's A 10 year old car - so you have to expect prices all over the place.

You are better looking for a really nice one and paying a bit more for it and keeping it a while - if you buy a dog, you will end up spending more on repairs than the vehicle cost. A bit of paintwork, suspension bushes, gearbox, brakes, bit of interiors trim and a service will end up doubling the purchase price of a cheap wreck. Sorry to be blunt but they are expensive vehicles to repair if you get a bad one.

Im in no way looking for a fixer upper. I expect a relatively pristine motor. You buy cheap you buy twice.

Not many make it to the short list. If one comes up i go and have a look. Get there. Be disappointed. Then wait for the next one. |

I would be tempted to wait for an enthusiasts vehicle for sale on the forum - no sharky dealers involved, plus if itās a long standing member they are likely to want to maintain a reputation 2021 L405 Vogue SE 4.4 V8 DIESEL ~ #17 |
