North of London Stevenage / Cambridge area.

Budget based on market values of such cars, Parker's example prices are below:

I wouldn't be guided by parkers to a certain extent , condition and history imo . Mileage adjustments, options/toys on the car, lots of variables.

Today viewed E320CDI Avantgarde 07-plate, 160k miles, Command, Memory Seats Bi-Xenons - so good spec really. Trader sale at just 5,200. Tempting price but quite horrible inside: steering wheel dirty and very worn, The door to the compartment between the seats has such a mark as though someone had put a frying pan onto it, the driver's door has a "stub wound" on the inside, overall the front of the car feels dirty... But then who knows, may be a valeting professional would spend 500 pounds on it and it would look like 7-8k car....

If you can travel to N.I theres a lovely example for sale which I viewed but I was too keen on the colour, I have travelled to mainland before to buys cars it doesnt cost that much, 50 quid flight and 120 return boat here's the advert anyways (nothing to do with me)

Congratulations! It is difficult to find cars in mint condition of that age at a reasonable price. However the price you paid is almost spot on Parker's valuation of £6,570. So yours has not done as many miles as Parkers assume but needed wheels refurbs so was so was £170 cheaper. But as I said - an excellent buy as difficult to find mint cars reasonably priced (too many touch the 2009 model prices just because their owners think they are mint).

Yes I agree thanks should have said I bought mine from a indie dealer but do agree even looking privately there is a vast difference in prices ie. 6k-10.5k same yr mileage etc good luck in ur hunt for the ideal car at the right money
