    I can only see £1700 between the prices, and they're the same picture - same car?
    Stock photo. They do it all the time. So will not be actual car.

    Different dealers as well, so local pricing may also be in play.

    Just buy the cheaper one and give up the deposit.

    Whatever you do, make sure you get it registered in your name & taxed before the end of March or it will cost another £195 to tax it.

    Have you driven one?
