Buying a CR-V auto

I have been offered a Honda CR-V i-DTEC auto, 2010, 49,000 miles.
Car has towbar and was towing a caravan. Asking price £18,000 from Stratstone Honda main dealer.

What is the car worth and should I avoid this car?

That's a lot of money for a 49,000 miler. Check the ATF (should have a separate dipstick). if it's black, don't touch the car because will be burned from torque converter slip from towing. The 2.2iDTEC is not yet booked by Glass's.

Roomy and versatile. Very comfortable, pleasant and relaxing to drive. not at all cumbersome. 2.2 i-CTDI diesel is excellent.
