Saying goodbye to my C30 T5

I did thanks. He's dropped it by £500 already. Still a bit toppy for 130k and too many miles for me. Will keep an eye out and if a unicorn pops up (sub 70k miles, late model, high spec) which isn't too far away I will probably go and have a look

Oh, THAT unicornish? well, seeing the amount of V50 T5's currently for sale, yea... See you in BMW soon!
On a sidenote - even the latests of P1s will be getting over 8year limit, u reckon its even possible to find sub 70k mileage one? 9k per year for T5 seem like sneeze...

Yes, that unicornish! 😄

I spotted a 67k lovely one a couple of weeks before Xmas that sold before my planned viewing, was gutted for weeks about that! Very rare though for sure. Now I have the Beemer estate it’s only worth switching if a stunner pops up as the Beemer is nice and I’m getting used to all the extras...!

Ah well, germanwagon on the driveway so you are gone :P
Wanted to attract you to one of irish adverts for a very nice 5pot petrol Volvo, very low mileage, nicely kept, not very old and with a LOT of boot space, but I guess its too late now?...

Wouldn't worry about mileage if looked after.

This is a nice one!

The one from my link is only 40k miles so mine is better

but joking aside - that silver is a a really nice one, fully loaded example!
just wondering where the extra 10hp comes from, or did I miss something in description?
also - "DYNAMIC REAR LIGHTING " - wth is this?

No idea, worth asking about but if the service history/all paperwork is there it looks like a good buy.

Factory xenons too, very nice spec, glad it doesn't have the useless Volvo nav too!

Whoaaah... that IS nice. More miles than I'd prefer but it looks lovely. Says it's based in 'Nelson', can only find a place called Nelson near Burnley. Had I still been looking I would have gone to see this. No rear parking sensors though
