Looks like I was extremely lucky to have only lost £4k after 2 years and 14000 miles.

I was also looking at tax, insurance, 2 tyres and a service, so thick end of £2k, if I had kept it another month.

Still miss it and seeing the prices of the 2018 model, made mine a hell of a bargain.
Yes suspect a combination of timing, good colour combination, and the right buyer.

True.

It had been up for sale earlier that year for 6 weeks. Only a couple of dealers offered low money in that time.

This time I was lucky. The chap that bought it had decided he wanted an Orange one only days before and mine popped up on eBay.

He called half an hour after I placed the ad and offered the full amount.

He arrived from up North at midnight and took it away.

It was due at Denbies Sunday Service that weekend and it took a while for me to realise that I had no car to take.
