It's a manual as well so I'm betting at least 2 clutches and DMF's, same amount of cambelts and at least 3 dpf fluid top ups if not a delete and map out...
Notice no pics of the interior as I bet it's battered to death as well!!

Mot history shows a quiet first year then miles pile on quickly so definitely a taxi as well due to annual MOT's from new.

That must be the one that was on Gumtree a few weeks ago.
If so then it's got the full leather pale grey interior and to be honest from the photos it looked very tidy inside, amazingly!
I'm surprised it's not had a trip to 'mileage correction services' but then I suppose that's not as easy nowadays with the MOT history so accessible.

My Mk 1 C5 2.0. Hdi has done over 200k on the original clutch, DMF and most other things, I also have a 406 with the same engine and that has done nearly 250k and is mostly all original, a bit simpler than the X7 though.

Mileage correction would still worry me as they can easily do it before each mot to bring it down.

If they came down to £1400 I could be tempted by it but it's a car you'd buy and instantly write off value wise as you'd struggle to sell it on. They won't negotiate on price though which makes me think they obviously got it at a total bargain and want to make good money on it. How much was it on gumtree for?

I think it was £2195.
I've been sort of looking for an Exclusive Tourer for a couple of years then seriously looking for a couple of months and I've not come across a higher mileage example.
(I've finally bought one now, I collect it on Saturday. Thankfully it's got a good 300,000 less miles than this one!)
