Default Car I'm thinking of buying ........












306 Turbo Diesel, 77K

How much is it worth, its really clean.
Looking at replacing my current 306xldt, but that has seen better days (although same mileage).

Ive been offered it for 1.5K, looking at the mileage/condition is that a fair price? In the trader they seem to be going for that much with 150K miles!

Cheers people

Yeah Ive been using it for last week or so, drives very smooth, although doesnt seem 'quite' as quick as my XLDT. Thought they were the same engine?

Not sure what to do.....

If you have the money then go for it..

newer car, more of the bugs of the early ones ironed out.

SHAME ABOUT THE COLOUR.

Price wise- seems ok- can pick em up cheaper and find em more expensive. I'd say you're middle of the road.

If you've had it for a week and its been fine buy it.
