Thanks for the advice and offer to view if in your area. Ideally it would be in the South East as I split my time between Denham Bucks and Poole.

I've spotted one on Trader up in Peterborough (Vanquish Autos) that seems to fit the bill but it has a Manual box. I'd heard the auto is slightly more fuel efficient but didn't realise there were particular problems with the manual?

Cheers
