Thanks for all the help gents.

Yesterday bought a Varadero on a 55 plate for £1500.00 from a dealership in High Wycombe.
Few scratches and marks but nothing out the norm.
Delivery next week then the fun can start.

Nice, use it and don't abuse it and you should be able to punt that on with virtually no loss.

Nah...that's about the going rate really...those things hold their value well. And actually its cheap to say it was from a dealer...so probably high mileage.

Great bike to learn on.

Just over 20,000 miles so I'd say about average and seemed a good price.
Previously had a cbf before cbt ran out due to I'll health.
Plan is to enjoy the bike and myself, get confidence back then look at mod 1 and 2.

I'm sure I've seen a few 06/07s for £1500 with around 15-20k...

Oh well, needs photos Mr. Green
