I think its just all about spotting the market and getting one if theres a bargain.
those on the market for 5k are quite pricey, if you can wait im sure you can pick one up for about 3k as vinny1979 did and as i hope i can do in spring...

As the others have said... It's over-priced.
Mine was 30k on the clock and cost me just under £5k (2 years ago).
I didn't notice if it was at a garage or private sale but you MAY be able to haggle them down some.

Thanks guys, that was pretty much what I thought. I'm quite happy with a black car as well, and would settle for XPG or BRG but not as keen on the silver.
As I said, I don't mind paying a bit more for a car that's spot on, but there is a limit, and realistically we can't afford anything over 5k.
