Hello everybody . I have had my eye on the following car since November and i test drove it in early december.

Since then i have also been looking at a number of Mazda RX8's. However, i really cant stop thinking about the Nissan, it really is a superb car.
However i have a few issues with the Nissan i am looking at. On the face of it, it looks a cracking deal. Considering its a nissan main dealer, the price is unbeatable (i cant find a cheaper one anyway). It has full service history (although i will have to check what exactly was done on the 54000 mile one as i understand its a biggie). I know that the dealer have had this car in their forecourt since at least july and a friend of mine thinks it was originally priced closer to £12000. Am i being paranoid thinking they have had to drop the price considerably as something major is wrong with the car or it needs lots of money spent on it? Or is it really just the financial world in which we are living at the minute, and not many people (especially in the north east where i live) can afford a car like this therefore the dealer has had to drop the price? Im really no expert when it comes to cars so, other than looking at the general appearance of the car, i wouldnt know how to look for any kind of deep rooted problem.
I suppose this is a long shot, but i know forum members tend to be a very helpful bunch, is there anybody on here who lives anywhere near Sunderland who would mind looking at it with/for me?
Also, an a slightly different note. How much can you really get in the boot? Not a massive issue to me, but if i was to buy it, i would like to be able to take it on the weekends away i have with the better half. Can you get two weekend bags in it? If not, we'll have to take her yaris
