Decisions, decisions...

Given the choice between the following Honda 2000s, which would you go for, and why?

a) Brand new 2004 spec from UK Dealer - £26,600
b) Brand new 2004 spec from UK importer (full UK spec) - £23,225
c) Used 2002 spec from dealer - £21,500 @ 20k miles
d) Used 2002 spec private sale - £20,000 @ 20k miles
e) Other age/price/source

Option b appeals but I'm worried about resale value, so I'm erring towards option c at the moment.

Thoughts please!

Are you saying that you'd buy private or were you just pointing me towards the classifieds? (I'm well aware of the PH classifieds thanks )

Try these guys

think they do cash deals to, its really a front for the Tachbrook Honda Dealers in Solihull who like to move some metal

I would steer clear of an import as you will lose out on re-sale. UK brokers can get quite close to the import price. I just had a quick look on uknewcars.co.uk and the price is £24,757. For the sake of £1,500 I would take this over an import every time.

Agreed,unfortunately resale confidence in imports(for no good reason) will always loose you ca$h esp if a UK version of same model is available.Good choice of car tho

Does option D still come with some warranty?
I'd go for that one.
