8sp auto is generally preferred for smoothness. Service history helpful. Probably fixed towbar if towing a lot. Consider whether Approved Used gives you peace of mind, or save a few £ and buy privately but maybe get an expert to check it over.

As soon as you get it you want to contact your local dealer and see if the VIN number needs the tow bar checking If it does tell them you do a lot of towing and it will probably get upgraded free of charge, a couple of people I know have had there's checked and on collection found a new multi height fixed bar fitted FOC MY18 RRS Autobiography Fuji White
