Im looking for a new estate work car and came accross this:

Just wondered what people thought of it and the price, I put the details through Parker Price Guide and it says £3500 from a independent dealer with mileage of 60k. Is it over priced?

IMO maybe a little over priced, i wouldnt even pay that from dealer with a warranty TBH

Im a little concerned about the dmf and 3rd injector although I dont know the ins and outs of the fault but whatcar.com give it a good review and says go for the 1.9cdti, but it will be quite a few motorway miles if that makes any difference

What would be a fair price to pay?

i would say 3k at the most mate

that's well over priced. I would say 3200 would be a fair price. A little more from a dealer.

That would fit with Parkers, they say just over £3k but its a huge amount to drop them by

**crespo** · 11th September 2010, 23:28

there are plenty about. just bide your time. There is no way I would pay anywhere near what they are asking. I parted with 2.500 for my 03 SRI with 75k on the clock and full history.

Not sure how long I have., currently driving round in a Volvo with a blown head gasket and possible cracked cylinder head

I might call them tomorrow and see if they will drop £1200 lol

I need some help, Ive seen this car but let me explain a bit:

I got made redundant in July had to buy a car so I could go to work and ended up with a volvo v40 which cost me £1380 and had 148k miles

2 months on the clock is now on 153k miles with a suspected blown head gasket and cracked cylinder head.

I drive at least 500 miles a week so the miles do rack up quite quick, the volvo is not worth repairing but dont have a huge budget to spend on the next car, £4k tops. Has to be a diesel and an estate, christ I might even look into a van as it would be cheaper.

This is what Ive seen but should I be concerned about the mileage?
