My mate works for a Peugeot dealer, and he's bought a 6 that someone traded in for £400, full service history, 96,000 miles in black. Apperantly an old boy owned it and only ever got it serviced at Peugeot. And, it's black...
Anyway, he wants £600 for it. I really don't need another car, but do I? This seems far too good to pass up on.
Someone please talk me out of this....

Depends what the condition is like, T&T etc... It sounds good and if it it is, then sounds like a good deal. But... surely he'd know what it's worth, so why would he be selling it cheap?

Exactly this.
Presuming all is well you could have a little earner there....

That is very, very nice. I certainly hope it ends up in good hands. This is what frustrates me with keeping my car going, it is in such a state but it is my first car and I love it! But there is so much out there in better condition, but I can't bring myself to scrap a car over a few items!

He said the roof could do with a bit of loving, but apart from that it's all good. Everything on it is standard. He's selling because he can't be arsed with it apparently, but he did explain it was a part exchange and it the dealer couldn't sell it, it'd probably get scrapped which he didn't want to see happen to a 6.

Remember 6s really aren't worth much any more. Also, in my experience anyway, the service history and previous owners make no odds.

The only problem I see, is if I buy it, and it's mint, I won't get round to selling it. I'll find a way to justify keeping it and have two 6's. If I was to have two 306's again, I'd have an HDi as well as a 6.

surely if you bought this black one you could charge the blue one and use the black as a daily?

That would be such epic win, but there's no way I'd be able to afford charging mine, and run a 6 as a daily. It's bad enough using this as a daily let alone spending £3500+ charging it.
BUT it'd be so rude not to buy it at that price if it is actually sound. Could make a little profit on this.
This is dangerous, I'm far too impulsive...

True, but also blacks looks fabulous after polishing and waxing - not to reach on e.g. white :-)
