    Thanks for the advice everyone.

    I decided not to do the deal in the end. After working through some figures there was essentially no difference financially between changing and not changing. So it came down to whether I wanted to stick with what I know works well or take a gamble on a new car, albeit one that would be slightly better to drive and comes with a year's guarantee. The cautious side of me just won out over the "I want a new car" side so I'm sticking for now.

    I think if the lower mileage car had had the SE trim I would have done the deal but sadly it wasn't to be.

    For what it's worth, I think you have made the right decision.
