S1 Elise - Lower miles or newer plate?

[Jim_Cross]

I may be looking to buy an S1 Elise this summer/autumn. I might only keep it for a year, then trade it in for an S2, depending on funds.
So, what's the best idea - a newer plate or fewer miles? Which is likely to be the more trouble free ().
I'll only be looking to spend £15k max, so I guess it'll either be a standard Elise, or 111S.

So you think say a V-plate 111S with 40k miles would be better than an R-plate standard with 20k, or an earlier 111S with 20k miles?

Also, any predictions on how much prices will rise by July?
