£2500 to expensive in my opinion. Mine is 57 reg. lower spec and paid £8000 9 months ago with 31,000 miles.

I'm guessing they're adding 2k for the seats.

Wow - that's an optimistic for sale price. I might have to up the price on mine :signLOL:

Seriously, I wouldn't worry too much about the mileage, just as long as it's been looked after.
You're paying over the odds for the low miles IMO.

My thought are that it is late, low miles, good condition and the seats.

I would go for this or an edition 30/pirelli but I'm after a good one so it's finding one. All of these are going to be 10k+

I had a look at your ed30, I'd need to sell my car myself though. I'm moving to Crawley, are you close?

Some chancers out there asking 10k+ for pauper spec cars! lol

The price shocked me , i would expect £8300-8500 to be about right for that car .

Theres a few bargains in the FS section worth a look. I wouldn't even bother going to view this.

I wonder how much for.

Gazza, I've pm'd you, but it doesn't show up in sent, so I'm not sure that it's reached you ...

I saw this one, but discounted it as the seats might be a theft hazard.
