Yes have spent alot on it.
I was very fortunate in buying one that needed only a few sensors replacing to bring it up to spec. A little bonnet re-spray and it's absolutely mint, but I have modded it a bit with only well chosen items.
Someone will get an absolute stonker, at 89k miles.
Sorry to hijack the thread...
Carry on!

Yellow is an awesome colour in it's own right!
I would consider it, but not as a daily!

Blimey is this still up for sale!
I viewed and test drove this one when I was looking in the summer 2009. The owner is very friendly and honest.
Lovely car drove fine and could barely fault it. Fantastic spec, it has all the toys and optics pack.
But the car had a full respray due to someone hitting the front door and wing with a tow bar. They couldnt get a good match on the paint so agreed to paint the whole car. Im pretty sure both the door and wing were replaced (no bad thing). The paint looked fine but the panel gap on the tailgate around the tail lights bothered me but I was assured there was no rear damage and to be honest the one I have now also has a slight difference in panel gap around the tail lights in the same place and mine has no rear damage either. The interior was looking a little worn for my liking, not terrible but I think he was asking mint money when realistically its closer to a fantastic example of a daily family car.
Also being used daily means the milage keeps creeping. I remember the milage being a fair bit out to what it was advetised when I looked at it. But he did adjust it.
I was very close to buying this one, but mine came up at a good 2k cheaper and IMO mine has a better condition interior which sold it for me.
