Ford S Max - wheel.spinning

[Rs4er]

Hi guys, I need some advice please. 

I'm currently looking for a Ford SMax 2.0 ecoboost - 2010 - 2011. I saw and drove a 2010 car today but every time I drove off or the car changed gear (auto box) it would wheel spin. I was setting off gently and not flooring it. The ground was slightly wet but nothing major at all. What could be causing this?

When I got back into my VW Touran (auto box) and drove off no wheel.spin at all. 

Also, what should I be looking out for on the S Max's.please when buying?

Budget tyres or low tread possibly.

A slight change here guys

I've seen a 2010 Ford Galaxy X. It's in excellent condition but is basic in spec (no sat nav or panoramic roof). The guys asking for £8400. Is this a good price? 

 

I valued it at car wow and webuyanycar and there valuations came in at £5500ish. I know they knock off a lot as they need to sell.on again, but I'm worried as there's such a MASSIVE gap in what I'm buying for and what it's valued at. 

 

Any help or advice massively appreciated.
