Too low a mileage for me. One lady owner, so most likely been used for one trip to WI on a Wednesday and Church on Sunday. I bet the engine has never got upto operating temp. Other than that a nice car.

Wow, that's a record asking price for a V40 classic!

The mileage is low enough I would be concerned that the injector tips or even rings have corroded if it was not run every month.

Very nice but does it have cruise control and the dog guard?

Can't see any rust under the bonnet (unlike mine) but all the rubber and plastic components are still 12 years old and will still be as brittle and perished as the ones on my car!

£8K is too much £4K maybe.

Edit: Its got cup holders so maybe it is worth the extra £4K!
