OK Steve, that's fair enough. I spent around £150 on train & fuel when I went to pickup my 850R, didn't factor it into the price though.

Sorry, and all, but that's my opinion.

Don't be sorry! That's fair enough, I've not had an offer of £500 yet though!

they are quickly becoming weekend 'blast' cars

What I find odd looking at yours, is how a CD spec does not come with front fogs, roof rails and elec front seats.
£450 is a good price, when I had a quick look that seemed to be about as cheap as you could get a T5, with the ceiling around £1k (which seems ambitious to me, but the odd one at that price was 'sold'), so I put mine in the middle.

As for CD spec, that's what it says on log book. It has electric memory drivers seat (as I mention in the ad) - both fronts heated, as well as dual zone climate, full leather, full electrics, 'premium' stereo, trip computer. As far as I knew, fog lights and roof bars were optional extras on any model.

I am not saying yours is not a CD model, I am just saying you would think top of the range would have them. Mine is not a CD and has BOTH front seats fully electric, and heated, and front fogs.

Yeah, I think even though it was top model (other than T5R or R) there were still some bits that were options.

I read the original spec lists for each trim type when I got mine, but can't remember where now!!
