109,000 when i sold it. Hardly any problems in 3 years apart from ECU (and in the end that was a minor issue).
Image
Old mans car if saloon. Interior stylish, comfy and clever. Get coded bumpers and mirrors.
Comfort
But only if its fully loaded with gadgets. No cup holder!! Mine had a/c and full elec pack. Avoid basic models. Boring.
