Hello Dave,
I'm probably putting my head on the block here but - c'est la vie n all that malarky.
For what it's worth I've been scouring dealer and private ads for best part of a year now for either older +4 or more recent 1.8 4/4. I did see your first post regarding the sale of your car and I do think it looks great but I'm afraid it's too new/good for my humble pocket.
Looking at prices currently there seems to me little difference between private and dealer. I get the impression people look at dealer prices and try for the same even tho there is no backup then in the deal for the buyer.
From the photos you'r car looks quite a high spec and it's low mileage so they're probably not too far away, if you dropped it 1k it would bring it under the 30k threshold which might bring it in to more peoples searches. It's a shame my piggy bank's not bigger!
Good luck with the sale.
