Andy, I think someone on the forum went to view this and it’s got quite a few issues. Iirc, flappy paddles not working and a few other things and he would only sell it as a trade sale, no warranty. It’s dropped a grand since then.
I know it’s a small thing but at the time I commented every wheel is dirty as they’ve not bent down to clean the bit they couldn’t see and it’s also a long time since I’ve seen hammered on external wheel weight which are also on every wheel. I initially thought it was a crack/buckle on the first picture I saw.

You have to accept used cars often have issues to sort
would need to be more serious than the above to put me off providing the price was reflective of the marketplace . The alternative of course is to pay £6k-£8k more for a AUC car that may or may not have niggles too .
These cars are heading for 10yrs + & multiple owners , each one has to be viewed & considered individually .

I agree at that age they have to be viewed and considered individually and that’s what the guy did.
He said after viewing and the issues that it didn’t feel 100% right to him so he walked away.

Dropped about a grand since then so probably a better deal with the money available to address the issues

Nothing wrong with SE at all - he is advertising the car as Msport and I still cant believe its on £6700 right now
I stand corrected and apologise (2 apologies in 1 day), maybe all the value is in the ALPINA badge

Apologise for what?
It is my pet hate - people advertising cars as something they are not wasting peoples time, there are quite a few about and it frustrates the hell out of me as they are trying to gain more cash for something which it is not.
I imagine whoever buys that is going to be furious when they turn up and the log book does not state Alpina - then again they have clearly done no research on what they are bidding on
