Advice on price for an 06 D5 185 PS SE Lux

wpg100 · Mar 15th, 2011, 12:12

I'm looking at an 06 plate SE Lux with the 185 D5 engine with 82k on the clock. Its currently priced at £17k. Is this a fair price or should I haggle to get it down?

Haven't taken it for a test drive yet but it looks ok from a quick viewing with three screaming kids!

Mrs is a little nervous about the size so may see if I can get Front Park Assist added, although should I mention that before I haggle on a price or after?

Thanks

Looks expensive to me for a car with 80k+ Miles - but then I'm comparing it with the new XC90 Active models people bought just over 12 months ago for just less than £21K new ...so not like for like.

So ..for a similar car - why not buy the one in the thread below this...

It's a 57 reg (2008 MY) SE with 37k miles on for similar price to the one you are looking at.

With that year of car 2006-2008 also check that its not one of the 185 D5's that fall into the £400 a year road tax bracket. There was only about a 2 year window where XC90 D5's did, models either side of that age window are £200 a year cheaper to tax. Not a huge amount but its a grand to George Osborne over 5 years!
