Ok went to see the silver clubsport...... 65k miles my arse. Theres so much black leather polish on the seats to cover the wear it came off on my trousers when I got out of the car.
The splitters were missing, someone pulled out the original cd player and badly fitted in a Sony one.
The passenger side window would not go back up the last inch. The interior trim are quite worn.
The worst was the fan squealed like a cat and the air con wasn't working.
To expect a 12 year old car for top money and with all these niggles plus its sitting on barum Tyres was taking the piss a bit.
Like my wife says , you don't need to change the car you're just in it for the hunt and thinking she's probably got a point ,I really enjoy looking and researching on the net for the next car but when I travel to all these places and spent my time and petrol money its getting me down a bit.
Why can't people just describe the cars as it is cause I'm going to see the truth anyway when I get there. I probably won't mind too much if its priced realistically but come on if I go and trade that car in i'll probably be lucky to get 2k.
I'm gonna let it lie a bit now and try in again in 6 months time and hopefully there will be a better standard of car out there when I do look again.
Thanks to everyone for the input and suggestions. Cheers

Ok got myself a half decent one.
Sapphire black ,auto, sunroof and xenons that's it.
Its pretty well speced as standard any way but would have been nice to have heated seats as that is what I really wanted.
Drives really well and oh so smooth. Wasn't much of a service history but I bought on the overall condition of the car and the interior is outstanding. Only thing is there is a bit of rust on the front arch but I went to ecp and picked one up for thirty quid and a friendly painter is gonna paint it for me for 60 quid. So not too bad.
I've already fitted a android head unit so that's keeping me entertained and also I won't miss the OEM sat nav and Bluetooth as this is a better solution.
Now just need to give it a good service and I'm a happy bunny. Oh just before people ask I paid 2600 for it which is not bad for my neck of the woods.
