Agreed.....
The grey one definitely looks to be the Best Buy of all 3.

Yes I would agree - unfortunately it's in Preston about 300 miles away :( It does seem the North/South divide extends to car prices as well !
Seems you get more for your money the further North you go

Its funny because staying in Scotland I always find you get more for your money travelling south.
Both of our cars have been over 250 miles south.

Really :? a 40k 8 yr old Se 30i on 18s without nav ? :o £11500 sounds over the odds to me & £13k makes my knees knock together
:cry:
3.0i manual is adding to the price afaic by a good 1.5k. If it's mint I can't see why it wouldn't be worth 12k. Nav is overrated
Agree the nav isn't worth getting sweaty over if a low use weekend car but even at £12k a 2009 3.0i manual sub 50k still looks expensive at £12k

I can recommend the garage - its where I bought my 3.0si :thumbsup: :D
Its been in the showroom for quite a while that one.

Sunderland to London and back in a day for mine. No distance is too far for the right motor. :thumbsup:

329 miles each way to collect our X6, from Paisley to Peterborough. If its the right car what does a day of travelling really matter. After all thats why you are buying it in the first place, to drive it. :)

I went to the isle of Skye to pick mine up , having to travel by train then ferry (with my rucksack full of cash!), I left at 6 in the morning and got back at 10 at night. It was a great adventure and wasn't disappointed.

Not sure about a north south divide on prices....
When searching for mine I saw plenty of deals in the south, but living in NE Scotland, driving 600 miles each way was just too far!
Ive bought several cars after long trips, but Nottingham was about as far south as we would go....
