Yep definitely cheap !

You'd probably get that much on ebay.

Anyway good luck. I've not had a sniff on my bargain 2003 in the for sale section here or on Autotrader.

Obviously not convertible buying time

Year of Reg is Y
Is high mileage, hence the cheap price.
Just had it serviced and the only thing that needed replacing was the window wiper blades.
My local Peugeot dealer had a 51 reg 2.0SE with 33,000 on the clock and wanted Â£13,495.
Thats Â£5k for 37,000 more on the clock.............................. Worth it ?

it might be cheap but if i was to buy it and taking into account i do nearly 20k a year then after 2 years it would have 110k on the clock - i wouldn't take the risk.

it's probably ideal for someone who only does about 5k a year.

it's probably ideal for someone who only does about 5k a year.

Or someone who wants a cheap one for a second car, or someone who can't justify Â£10k + for a car.

Way toooooo high mileage!

I disagree i'm afraid...i think the guy is asking a very fair price for his car, and in this day and age, with engine technology being what it is nowadays, why be scared off by high(er) mileages? As long as cars get regularly serviced it won't be a problem. Its not like the old days where anything over and above "annual" mileage of 12k should be avoided like the plague. If you look round this and are willing to look at cars with fairly high mileage, there are some real bargains to be had. I personally would be looking into why else the prices are low (undeclared accident damage etc - not that i am aiming this at this particular car listed here....)
All in my own honest opinion of course

I agree with Greg. If it's been fully serviced then I wouldn't be worried about high mileage in a 3 year old car. If I want to do 20K a year myself then maybe not but if you do limited miles (I've managed 2K in 6 months!) then it's not a problem.

Well at the end of the day I'm pretty sure I will sell it at that price just for the pure and simple fact of it being a 206CC someone out there will want it regardless of the miles just for it to sit pretty in there drive or to have it as a summer car.

I actually purchased it from British Car Auctions and they do all off them sort of checks i.e accident damage, hpi clear, chassis clearance.

The other good point is it was sold at British Car Auctions on behalf of Peugeot Contract Hire, so that is where the high mileage came from, but also means I have a complete Peugeot Sevice History.

According to the service guy, who I have been using for many years now reckons she is still purring like a Rolls Royce.

ppl just let the guy sell his car. :rolleyes:

ahhhh, well I'm not afraid of high miles but I would have prefered to have met the actual driver of the car. If you got it from an auction that won't be possible.

So did you buy just to try and make profit or did you actually want to own one?
