BACKGROUND: A popular model in a good colour, this car was direct-entered by a major bank. The five-year-old car had been well maintained and was offered at a sensible mileage.

A good level of pre-sale preparation meant the car looked its very best and – of course – the V5 and MoT were present. Pretty much a tick in every box and adding some BCA buying power, this car sold for well above CAP Clean.
