Default Need honest opinions on which car to get....

2003 S-Type R w/ 24744 miles.....no nav for 17k
2005 S-Type R w/24482 miles .......w/nav for 23k


These are really the only 2 worth looking at in my area, both are in pristine shape, 03 is silver and black, 05 is dark green with tan/black 2tone seats

im leaning towards the 03, i have plenty of audio gear i can put in it, not worried about nav actually at all

Let me know what you all think, i can post the links if necessary

Well, as the mileage is the same as near as damn it and you don't care about satnav, only decision is if the newer car is worth $6k, how long you're gonna keep it, what mileage are you gonna do, and their effect on resale values, seems the main issue - unless of course you just prefer the older cars color scheme - if so, that's just as valid a reason to buy it as anything else.
