I presume most people will have spotted it, but be interesting to see how it goes.

Someone in the comments has been through the service pics rather carefully.

It sounds, from what you can see, a good car and given the bills, one that has been looked after regardless of expense.
Could be a bargain - great colour, late car, decent mileage (not too many but enough to be used).

Though personally, rather than risk low ball at auction I'd have tried thorney or similar. Given they have sold older, more higher mile cars for mid to high 90s I'd have thought that would be sensible.

How much did this sell for in the end?

Shame they blank it after the sale. It was at 59 with 4 hours to go.

Has possibly the worst spec interior I’ve seen- red with blue outside. I did consider trying to buy and swap it all out if it went for cheap (there was a a few pretty hefty fixes inc a 23k DCT unit I figured may put some off).

Overall good car for someone tho.

I don’t think it met the reserve.

I was the highest bidder at 62,250 which didnt meet the reserve. I've since been offered the car for more money but I'd like to see the car first and im at the other end of the country!
I believe there's also now a trade offer on the table too

I'm not surprised that it didn't meet the reserve at £62,250. It sounds like the seller is keen to offload it so you or the trade bidder could get the car for a decent price.

Pretty marmite colour combo but regardless that would be worth 90 something retail, could be a real bargain unless it's hiding some serious gremilins.
