Car sale websites - what's available?

Bikes will be on the back of the car, both electric so don't fancy lifting them! Plus I already have a nice Thule rear carrier to use.

The estate is preferred rather than an SUV as like the idea of a longer boot space rather than flattening seats. That said I've added Qashqai to my limited SUV list (others are Peugeot 3008 and Citroen C5 Aircross).

Love our Qashqai - they aren't big really, just a bit higher which is great for getting in and out of as you get 'older'. The petrol engines are the best. zero trouble with our 2012 version - had it since 2015/6

EBay is pretty good for cars

Do you really need a rear camera Vs sensors?

I guess your milage will rule out many rep mobiles which might do 30k year but less wear and tear than a city/ speed hump diva!

Also be wary of coastal cars as they rust! DAMHIK!

I might browse e bay but I'd only look at dealer cars and if I did find one I'd go direct to them rather than buy through e bay.

I'm matching the second drivers personal car otherwise yes I'd be happy with sensors. Some nice looking cars with high mileage came up but I'm not willing to take the risk on them.

And ones from Scotland and North East. My van has come from the South West and it's spotless underneath.

Motorpoint have several Superbs and Octavia estates around the country.
I usually use Motorpoint, my last 2 cars have come from them, pretty much they've nailed the price down to beat most other dealers...

But a 60k car won't be any less reliable than a 50k one but £1k cheaper?

I'm not a mechanic so not qualified to answer that, 50k has been my traditional limit so I'm sticking to that.
