Anyone in Mansfield who could look over a C5 X7 for me?

I've never made a request like this, and I'll understand if my short time as a member of this forum excludes me from asking, but...

There's a C5 which has popped up for sale in Mansfield which seems to tick all the boxes for what I want. I was in Nottingham last weekend and was actively searching for anything suitable to go and view, 3 days later this pops up, which is just typical! It's an 8 hour round trip from home for what could potentially just be a tarted up auction banger on a forecourt.

If anyone would be so kind, and is in Mansfield, and ideally knows what to look for in an X7, I'd really appreciate it if they could get in touch about casting an eye over it and sending me some pics of any issues, and a bit of an assessment on the car. Happy to donate some chocolate/tipple of choice to anyone who might be able to help!

Just rang and it sold this morning, it was only put up last night so must have been a good deal!

I'll lock it to avoid a long thread about nothing in particular. Although why this one should be different I don't know!!
