FFS £16k for a VXR, whats the world coming to, they are supposed to go up in value as less of them on the road, at this rate, will cut my losses and sell the blue one (not that I want to and I did not buy it just so it may go up in value) Steve

I was told that it was going to be 18k and I was surprised when I saw it for 16k. Even at 18k though there cant be a VXR privately owned with less than 6000m on it can there?

Approx 8,500 miles. Though when you drive it, you can tell they've been HARD miles.
If i hadn't driven their LY the day before i drove this one i may not have bought a VX220 - felt way too stiff for the road. Might have had some geo issues as well, but whatever was up with it, it certainly didn't inspire confidence.
