Car with Leather seats, 15k budget

WhatsGoingOn2 · 10-12-2015 08:36AM #1

I am looking for a car of no more than 3 years old that has leather seats. Any suggestions? My budget is 15k, but could stretch up to 20k at a push for the right car. I currently drive a Mondeo, but will consider anything from Focus/Golf size upwards

Can I ask what's the significance of being less than 3 years old? I would pur more emphasis on mileage and service history than age especially for a younger car.

You should be able to get yourself a really nice newer model (post 08) C Class Mercedes well within that budget if you are willing to look beyond the year.

Thanks.
I currently have an 12 reg Mondeo, so would prefer to keep at least that year and above. It is not a must requirement though, if everything else in the car was good. I definitely want relatively low mileage though. I drive about 30k a year and I want the car to have some value when I change again in a couple of years.

This might fit the bill?

low mileage, v posh, leather seats, reliable HDI engine. only downside is the year.

Or you might be able to haggle this down to 20K if you have cash:

How about this? Leather and good spec otherwise.

Good option but that asking price is expensive even with the low mileage and decent spec, the Laguna has been discontinued for about 4 or 5 years now and used prices have fallen away.

Would you be concerned with a diesel only doing 15k or so a year? Dpf etc?

What about this Skoda Octavia, Auto, DSG gearbox, 1.6L Diesel with Full Leather spec, well under your budget , well worth a look see.

I'll be driving 30k or so. Budget is 15k (or a bit more for a good car).
