I paid £1850 for my 1999 406 LX 1.8i Petrol D9 saloon, which had only 29,000 on the clock.

Not a damn thing wrong with it (except the exterior temperature sensor, and that really isn't a showstopper).
2002 (D9) Peugeot 406 Coupe SE, 2.2 litre Petrol. Scarlet Red/Rouge Ecarlate/Rosso Scarlatto. Black Leather interior. SOLD :(
2008 (E60 LCI) BMW 525i M-Sport, 3.0 litre Petrol. Carbonschwarz Metallic. Black Dakota Leather and Myrtlewood interior.

I know of a nice exec 110 coming up that's just had £1,200.00 spent on it :P

Cap'n - did you get shafted a bit on the 'Gap' between finance and write-off value?
