many thanks! I hope to get one without esp, as want to minimise my risk to big bills!

Looking at 2nd hand octys, how can you tell if this is fitted? Is it rear discs instead of drums?

If that rate is accurate, they should be classed as consumables!!! ( and priced accordingly!)

Does the turbo have a finite life? At what mileage do they usually give up? And how expensive are they to replace?

Ta for quick replies. would you expect any big bills coming with this mileage?

Hi all, saw the above with fsh and 106000 miles for 4.5k. Firstly is that a fair price, and does it have a dpf? Cambelt has been changed, would this make a good long term buy?

Guys sorry to drag this post back to life!! Been looking (still!) and seen a few elegance´s 2005-2006 MY for around 5K however they all have 100 ish K on clock. Would I be expecting to change the clutch anytime soon? What is the "average" life of clutch on these anyway?? big ta!!

thanks for the input lads!

im 38 so im ready for the pipe anyway! any major probs i should look for at this price, I assume cam belt change would be the big one?

Hi guys, looking at 1.9 PD elegance as my next motor, is it worth (any) extra outlay against the ambiente? Budget of 4-6K, estate is preferred option at moment, and which level of HP is the more reliable? Cheers.
