my grip is that i have the original purchase order saying £14k odd when it was new and i have paid in around £12k and had it serviced once. so lets say take away insurance which is peanuts for me and make it £10k i have paid in i would have expected to pay £5-6k but they want market value for the car and not dealer trade price... and i thought that motabiity were a charity... lol

i could go out and buy one from a forecourt for less with 50k miles and higher spec but what might be lurking under the bonnet.

at 17k miles its hardly run in is my view and i know the car and its been well looked after.
