At this level you are mostly buying cars that cost considerably more new and have the steepest part of their depreciation behind them. That is the economically sensible moment for a premium car — provided the history is right. Unbroken servicing at a franchised dealer is not a nicety here but the precondition for the car being sellable at all later on.

What matters
- Have an independent used-car inspection carried out before buying. At this price the cost of the inspection bears no relation to the risk.
- Ask what a major service and a set of tyres cost before you commit. On premium cars both often approach what a small car costs to run in a whole year.
- Depreciation is the largest item over your ownership here, larger than fuel and servicing together. Hold a car three years at this level and you lose more to the curve than to the workshop — which is why demand for the model matters more than its list price.
- Driver-assistance systems are standard from this level up, and that makes them a repair item: a camera behind the windscreen, radar sensors in the bumpers. After a stone chip or a car-park knock the expensive part is not the component but the calibration afterwards.
