...On a 2005 DC5 from Dickson's in Scotland. It's £17,000 with less than 2000 miles on it.

Has anyone got any advice on purchasing a DC5 and what to look out for. I was hoping for the red recaro interior but this one has a black interior. Is it a different edition or anything? Does the C-Pack apply to the facelift? If so what does it include?

Cheers.

C pack does apply to facelift DC5's. I have put down a deposit for one and its arriving in Jan. Although i wanted C pack and red interior i had to settle for non c pack and black interior. Although, red looks better there is no doubt that black would last longer and wont show up dirt as much.
Roll on January. Im paying around £13,800 for my 53 plate 16k DC5

Nice 1 mate, did you go up there and look at the car? They have some nice cars just they seem to be very highly priced, did you trade your Premier in for it?

Cheers Chief. The car's still in Japan but it'll be in Scotland by next week. It's a grade 5 import so it's 'showroom condition'. Obviously if I don't like it I can transfer my deposit on to another DC5 but I don't think I'm gonna have any complaints :D

£17k isn't too bad a price for an 05 facelift with A/C & C-pack and 2000 miles on the clock I would have thought. I know that I'd have got a much better price by buying private but it's too risky...

If I was paying that price, I would want the red interior, the black is boring and doenst stand out, looks bland.
