Worth it with the miles? Considering the age?

Looks an honest car to me. Not sure what you mean 'by the age' as you won't get a much later ED30 as they only go to '08' plate (I think - Pirelli editions are '58'). This seems under average miles for an early 2007 car (based on 12k a year?!).

Good spec - looks to be only missing Xenons & sunroof to be top spec. Every other option seems to be there. I know options don't count for much on the second hand market, and most can be retrofitted - but the cost mounts up if you want them to be added later! I know after adding MFSW buttons, Hi-line display, RNS510...

I think the money is a tad strong given private sale, but seems a good condition and history.

If it ticks the boxes for you, then I would try the guy on a deal, but getting your perfect spec can be hard work.

^^Agreed there!!

Can't be too many ED30's with such low mileage.

Looks a lovely condition car!

PS - where's the interior pics? :grin:

Incorrect. 58 plate Ed30's exist. Thor's car is a 58 plate to name but one   :wink:
