So I think we may be on the lookout for another very soon. I am going to look at the G29 aswell, but think they are still a bit expensive for a 'summer toy'.

It would have to be an N20, in either of the whites, or VO, or possibly Melbourne Red.
Don't you go lowering the tone of the VO community! :poke:

    I'd agreed a deal on this one for collection next week but now can't complete. Happy to put you in the frame with the seller if you're interested.

    It's a 2013 plate 20i with 32,500 miles.

    Anyway happy to send you the Car Vertical search details I paid for and the VIN report but it does have the pure traction design and comfort packages along with heated seats but no IDrive :thumbsup:

    I wondered about the G29, but paying an ongoing subscription for things like adaptive suspension and heated steering wheel put me right off.

    It's a 2013 plate 20i with 32,500 miles and it comes on a 5 digit private plate ending KMP - prIce agreed was £10,500. Which on that mileage I reckon is around £2,500 below retail.

    That does look good TBH. Apart from the colour it is pretty identical to the one we sold to IRD; same mileage, same age and also almost the same money! Thanks for the heads up. :thumbsup:

    Unfortunately right now is not a good time to be buying another car. My mother died earlier in the week, so have a million and one things to think about and sort out. Buying another car should not be one of them.
