    Looks nice but its a very strong price IMO

    If you can get the price down a bit and it stacks up everywhere else it could be a good buy.

    Nice colour combo, a few nice options: heated sports seats, iDrive, PDC, wind deflector. Couldn't see if it had cruise or bluetooth (even though iDrive fitted doesn't mean it has it). Not bad for £7k

    Thats a pretty well specced SE to be honest, looks decent enough for the money.

    I can't see the advert - perhaps it is sold?

    That looks like a lot of car for the money :thumbsup: Cheeky remap and youre away :)

    I wouldn’t be worried about pdc or cruise.. mine had neither and didn't miss them.. got the important options imho.. big stereo and heated seats is all you need :)

    Edit.. the car does have PDC :thumbsup:

    The little penny things on the front and rear bumpers give it away. It has PDC. :thumbsup: However, the button is missing. Retrofit??

    Very shiny. Looks good for the money from the photos, unless you want cruise and extended storage (a couple of bits of netting). Just check those wheels for cracks and repairs IMHO. Pre-LCI too if LED DRLs are a deal breaker.
    All good things come to those who wait. I'm really impatient which explains a lot.

    I appreciate this is blowing your budget, but with 30,000 less miles than the one above this seems like good value
