So how much did you pay? 12k?
Seems a little high IMO.
VX are traditionally terrible for depreciation and the Turbo can now be had from 16.5.
However, if its not registered and you can do the work on it yourself then its probably worthwhile.

I'd like to see one with 4k miles on the clock for £16.5k

I didn't say you could but the Turbo can be had from 16.5k.
I would rather pay, for example 17.5k for this with 6k on the clock than 12k plus repairs.......
