Tbh I think you will get an ok car at 20k but I don’t think it will be a great one and will probably need some stuff sorting, 20k is the start point on PH and auto trader and that even includes cat cars, it’s just logic that the better ones will be more expensive.
The one at that price level I have looked at needs a major service and a full set of tyres. So there is a bit of money to be spent. paulguitar said:

Oil leak an easy fix on that one too ?
That one doesn't have a leak. (That I'm aware of).paulguitar said:
If you look at the start of the thread what happened was I looked at a vehicle health check that an OPC did on the car. They’d been overly enthusiastic about other probably unnecessary work being required, in particular suggesting replacement of the tyres, despite the minimum reading being 4.7mm, so I thought perhaps the advisories might be over zealous…
Ok, they probably showed it on the video most do nowadays anyway.GT3Manthey said:
This went through collecting cars last night.
If you include commission and a new set of tyres you're in for 40k
You get what you pay for I guess.
Only 7k miles .
I was watching that one, the seller, and CC must be very pleased with that result!If you include commission and a new set of tyres you're in for 40k

Only 7k miles .
Still, 7000 miles, so a very rare occurrence.

Very well optioned example and as you say super low miles. Still, 7000 miles, so a very rare occurrence.
I suspect the seller was looking for 35 so small on top .
The buyer gets a great car too. The blue interior might not be for everyone but that's subjective.
The GTS models I'm a fan of -

No messing about, well done you - enjoy
Tks , and also tks for answering some of my questions the other week which was all prep work to finding the right car. Test drove a white manual car at an OPC with ceramics. Lovely car and prepped well but figured PDK was now for me and the spec on this one is outstanding.
Looking forward to spending more time on this forum group.
