not a lot of advice I can offer on this, I just sold my trusty 52 plate after buying an 04 plate so I made the same choice. I think sometimes you just have to check it out as thoroughly as you can (perhaps take another club member with you to view) and then go with your instincts

As Plank has done, I had a 2001 2.7 and sold it for a 2005 3.0, the 2.7 although looking very smart up top, it had started to rust out underneath

agreed, but how far do you take that? if you want a newer one you have to a least be looking. You can't sit at home waiting for some one to knock on the door "excuse me would you like to buy a car? . . ." now that would be weird. Just start looking and the right one will stand out from the crowd. I think the trick is not to try to hard
