Black - you know it makes sense :wink:

Still, even with those miles, it makes sense to buy a well used newer car than a seldom used older one - as long as the price is right, that is :smiley:

Just goes to show that high miles drop the residuals of any car dramatically - even with a good spec :sad:

That is seriously cheap. I assume it's an import and out of warranty and is in poor condition. I can only imagine what the poor guy took as a trade in value for the car.

Probably right - some very cheap motors here, including a 2001 Audi TT for under £10k:
