i would turn up with 1500 quid cash and see if he shakes your hand,  although its a great price already!

[miggcddave]

go and get it thats a nice car ;; and it will be nice to have your plasticarowner name removed and the old name back

[Bacon Butty Man]

sent him a message to see if he would do a trade in, obviously my car is more sellable so it would be cash my way :-/ :-/ you never know, i paid 3 grand for a crappy placcy car a week ago, so tbh its more sellable than a mig.

[miggcddave]

he will bite your hand off on that deal ? but he is acar dealer and you know what they are like 

[Bacon Butty Man]

altho, i filled the placcy car up with 70 litres last week and its now got a quater tank left and its done 270 miles, so its quit good on fuel

70 liters = about £70 ish ;; thats about 54 mpg brill but the street cred is down to 2mpg

[JamesV6CDX]

Bah, sell yours seperately, spend a grand on a nice 3.0 V6 facelift, and pocket a couple of K!

[miggcddave]

How do you work that out.

70 litres = 15.4 gallons (imperial)

Given 3/4 of that was used thats around 11.55 gallons used.

Which for 270 miles is 23.5mpg which is really piss poor!

am i right in thinking that the tax for this mig next year goes up to £425 

tax only goes up for 51 plate onwards,  all pre Y reg are limited to £220 a year or so.

the 51 plate to 06 plates are on a carbon scheme, 
most is about 250 i think

and the 06 onwards will be the collosal ones for 3 and 4 litre cars.

if in doubt, pop to local dvla office and ask them for an up to date table of charges.

i am going next week so will ask for one then.
