Invaluable when I went to see mine - I managed to knock £500 off the asking because she clicked and creaked (that's £500 off for a bit of needed grease!) :teeth::thumbs:

 

Good luck, she's the best thing I've bought for ages..

Welcome, with regards to your other post about someone telling you to avoid anything 2006+ (facelift), i would take that with a pinch of salt, its known that 2006 models can burn a little extra oil, 2007+ are a totally different engine (HR) and have no oil issues whatsoever, + you get the higher horsepower. 2006+ however will put you in the higher VED bracket (road tax) which is £500 a year, just look at it as a couple of extra tanks of fuel a year difference over the pre-facelift models,

 

The DE engine pre and including 2006 can be modded a little more (plenum spacer comes to mind) than the HR models

Welcome!

 

did a lot of searching myself when buying - i decided to go pre-2006 to get the cheaper tax bracket.

 

just look for the usual - good service history, check the exhaust for any cracks at connection between back box and centre piece and that all callipers are working spot on - you'll feel it under breaking.
