So maybe this is the extent of the damage on the trim and I have a similar amount of damage at the rear section of the car because the faux leather is made of blue Rizla paper thick material and will scuff and tear if you so much as breathe on it!

If this stops you from buying a 10 year old car with above average mileage (for the marque) then you really need to "have a word with yourself".

I tend to agree. A 10 year old car will always have a few bits & bobs that are not perfect. A good trimmer will have this as good as new for 200-300 maybe less if you get a good but cost effective one.

That colour makes the car a bit more old/classic/classy and less sporty to me but I prefer the sporty look/edge on a GT myself. It is a Coupe after all. Buy the QP in this colour IMHO.

I agree. SO easy to fix / retrim.
If it really is 50,000 miles and had a recent service... its got to be too good to be true.
If you don't like the colour - wrap it med blu and sell it to dave.

The Gran Cab at Brands was stunning in the sun in that colour.
I need to save a few more pennies (about 2 1/2 million at this mornings count) and it would be mine

A very good read - not just for cricket or sports fans:
