I get that cars are more or less loved, but even mine that is literally cherished&pampered would probably have faults to be pointed to
dent here, scratch there, too high, too small wheels, pass, neeext?
Too high. And a little too high. Bit too high too.

I am a fussy @£$%^&&, but reasonable too. A bumper with stonechips and scuffed wheels: no probs. New interior parts and sorting a bent bumper on a car with more miles than I'd prefer: no thanks!

My C30 was in surprisingly good condition when I bought it, and ideally I'd find a V50 T5 in similar condition, but an estate car is more of a worker car, gets less love, more use etc, so I'm being a bit ambitious in what I want it seems. It's still top of my shortlist but the lead it had over the other contenders is getting shorter and shorter... which is a bit of a shame

EDIT: Yours is looking great by the way LoB!
