I see

Grill

looks wise there's nothing what can touch the sport (my view).........

as regards to the ride quallity, having not been in an SE i couldn't tell you but in my experience its a better ride than my volvo which i had before

in a word YES its worth the extra ins group

I will admit though steve the price difference between the sport and the se is a lot in the second hand market and in my opinion you do pay a premium just for some alloys a set of springs and a grille and spoiler .so know were you are comming from you could save yourself a few grand with the equivilant se ,that is until a sport pulls up next to you and you relise what you have done :driving:

sport spolers and grills are readily available... then get some aftermarket wheels that look better than the sport.. Rondells always look nice..

premium would be £50 -100

Eibachs wouldbe nice.. £250

Wheels 1K

Spoiler £100

Stickers (£0)

Grill £60

£1500 at the most
