I've been searching both the classifieds here and Autotrader to find my good lady a 1 series and I've had enough! Does anyone want to do my spade work for me?

Budget up to 12k and M Sport would be preferred. As new as possible and with < 60k miles.

Thanks.

Engine? Or does it not matter as long as it's M Sport trim?

Manual or auto? Engine? Diesel or petrol? Any options you want? Any you don't want? Any preference for colour? Why an M Sport (SE will be cheaper, more car for your money etc), 3 door? 4 door? Hatch? Coupe?

It's all about asthetics I'm afraid.

Manual
Diesel
4/5 Doors
Silver / Grey / Black / Blue (no preference)
Only option she will definately use would be parking sensors...

Fair enough smile

Did you have no luck just typing that lot into Autotrader?

A very quick search came up with this - you could probably get it for £12k.

This looks alright too:

Right at the top of your budget, but its an M Sport in a nice colour combo, with the parking sensors and low mileage smile

Thanks. I just got fed up searching and thought I'd see if anyone else wanted to take over. If you don't want to play...

I'm going to have to register so will have a look at that later this evening but thanks for the link. I was hoping someone might point me in the direction of a dedicated forum for sale.

Thanks again.

Just go on Autotrader and put the options in the box labelled "keywords". Then sort by distance, and go from there smile

That one looks perfect. It's on the shortlist.
