Both massively overpriced IMHO. £10.5k for an 05 SE 57k miles and £11.25k for 07 XS 68k miles. Ouch!!

Thats what I thought. However, all seem to be similarly priced on Autotrader. Price aside, which one does one prefer?

Are you dead set on a manual?
Mileage is not as important as making sure the car has had correct maintenance & TLC.
Look out for a suitable car in the classified section on this forum, do plenty of research and don't rush.

Don’t make the mistake I did. Check the classifieds here and save yourself a fortune and get a car that’s been maintained properly by enthusiasts.

I’m looking here and they seem better value here. However I might need to px my car to raise the funds. Thanks again.

It depends on what you want. the SE has satnav, heated screen, leather, bi-xenons, power fold mirrors over the XS and the XS rear carpet has stripes in it so I suspect a dog cage - so do a sniff test.
Like you I thought I needed to spend more but got a gem for 8K
Hi
They are out there.
Shop around i managed to pick up a 2008 7seater auto, SE 57 plate for 10k over 3 years ago.
