Must be VGC and FSH. Ideally less than 60k miles. Cash waiting for the right car!
-
good luck, not many of them about. Be prepared to pay mega bucks for low mileages

Thanks; yes I've seen it and it was gonna cost a good deal more than £8k to put it right when I looked beneath the shiny paintwork! Pity! :( Still there must be others out there!

What a load of nonsense!! the car is as good an example as you will find, and to the few people who have actually seen this car they know how good it really is. This is just a sad attempt to de-value the car out of some sort of jealousy :(

I Disagree.
A car is only worth what someone is prepared to pay for it, Bose Addict seems genuine in the fact he went to see the car, and he believes it will cost more money to put it right.
Cars like this look fine on the surface, but low miles and Grandad ytpe drives nave having been over 40/50 MPH and only ever done short runs might have caused allsorts of miggly maintainence work. Daft things like perishing rubber seals, rust on moving parts, neen there done that, not allways the bargain they quite seem.
So no, I genuinely dont see it as an attept to devalue a car.

There you go then, thats £400 at the dealers straight away, and this sort of car needs thedealer history to reflect the price.
-
But it doesn't need anyhing doing to put it right?? fair enough if there was something that needed doing but there isn't. The only thing that hasn't been done is the cambelt, but at 17K you can forgive someone for not doing it.
-
....
but at 17K you can forgive someone for not doing it.
but there is also a time element to changing a belt aswel as milage ;) and this is 3 yrs over due :y
-
The problem with a lot of the service intervals (Please do not think I am inferring in any way about the car that has been discussed here, I haven't seen it so can't comment) is that people only read the mileage interval not the time interval.
eg. on the later set of intervals it was oil change every 20K or 1 year, whichever comes first, so if you had a vehicle and it did one mile in a year it should still have an oil change at 12 months. Coolant is every two years as is brake fluid.... the list goes on.

Absolutely agree (and with Mr Skruntie's observations). Remember these motors do twice the legal limit and (IMHO) things need to be tip-top in the service book. ;)
