Well, after long debate with Lady Miggy, and listening to what you guys said about it, I am going to Sandhurst on Thursday afternoon to look at this.

I have been undecided on what to do, I initially wanted the 3.2 Elite, 53 model but his prices are to high, 9k on some occassions, I have looked at others cheaper private sales but not prepaired to take a chance on private.
The guy selling the CDX is giving a 12 month warrenty with a new service and cam belt change, there is an option of extending the warrenty, at a cost, it seems a good car from the pictures so I am going to take a drive, he said over the phone if my miggy is what I say it is he would look at giving me a descent price.
Let see on Thursday.

Nice motor Loo-Knee thanks for the lead but I am going to stick with a dealer, get some warranty, I know it will cost me more from a dealer.
Thanks Mate.

What the MV6 :question :question

I was about to post that one too, 49k, 2002, the full irmscher kit with sportstars
its only 5 miles from me and at £6,000 its not unreasonable, he says full history, is it not tempting enough?
i'm sure it's the one i mentioned seeing in bolton, going off that number plate. looks too familiar!!
-
TBH Miggy I don't like the face lift shape much (sorry to everyone who has one) but i do like the look of that one.
Think it maybe the body kit as Mike Dundee's is nice too, but i do like it in Black :y

Wow now were talking that is one Sh*t hot car :y :y :y
I was looking at a 2001 2,6 at my local Dealers the other day it had about 60000 on the clock and they wanted nearly 9000 for it, and it didnt look half as good as this one.

Looking good is one thing but 6k of hard earned money, it needs to go good also, I have been stung once before buying private, got the cash refunded after several months of small claim courts, at least with the sandhurst dealer I would be getting warrenty, plus it may have service history but how has it been driven by previous owners, foot flat no doubt.
It is a stunning car though.

I would prefer not to buy from a dealers anyway....
First thing being they have loaded the price Massively.. I know a guy who works selling cars, if they are selling a car for say £6000 they got it for £4000-£4500, that to me would be at least £1500 to go in your arse pocket in case something goes wrong with the privately bought car..
Secondly the warranty, how often have you bought something and it has gone wrong when the warranty as actually run out? Plus someone with money have had these cars.. and you can tell when they have been looked after or not..
I can see your thinking if you have been stung before, but not everyone are Dick Turpin :y
-
true, i got mine from a dealer, at private sale price, he knocked £400 off because he needed the space, and i got no warranty, and had no problems that a warranty would have made much difference to!

I've got a 2001 2.6 which I have owned for 6 years, with 50k, FSH, and (black) leather, and I don't think it's worth anything near that.... in fact if I were to sell I would probably be lucky to get half that.

Miggy, it's almost identical to mine expect mine is two years older and has black leather rather than beige, but assuming this is a good example then it is a lovely car that you will enjoy to own... in fact I didn't expect to keep mine more than 3 years but I've had it now for 6, I accept that it will have to go soon but I am putting it off as much as I can... if it looks genuine, go for it.
