Well you can't (and shouldn't) argue with that!! yes

Hmm, a new year run out to meet the new motor might be in order?

Either way frown

Yep..... Looks like they want to pay bottom money for mine £30k but want top money for theirs.... Typical dealer....

I honestly thought my car + £15k would have clinched a deal...... Recent service, pads, 2 new rear tyres, and still with only 21k on the clock.... I ain't giving it away.....

Mine isnt going to drop by much more now, so it gives me time to save a bit more and go for an S.... Might take me a year or so..... But it's not like I'm dring around in a bangersmile

All good things come to those that wait Luna, and I have no doubt that you'll get what you want soon.

It's funny Tony.... Before I had an Aston, I'd have been bouncing off the walls, doing whatever I could to get what I wanted....

I could quite easily scrape the extra £4k together for this one, but I don't want it badly enough, and i dont think my car plus £19k is a good deal.....

So for now I'll just keep saving, and we'll see what comes alongsmile

£19k or £15k ? bet you could make a few phone calls and someone will come up with that deal. The dealer is a tt, a fking tt, boy oh boy I looooove dealers .......

You are spot on, they want to give you 50p for your car, but theirs is in mint condition and the only one on the planet ...... my arse

Listen to your wife, stop faffing and make some phone calls, in this economy, I bet you dealers will fall over themselves to do a deal. Go and see this car, kick the tyres, offer the £15k, drink their expensive coffee, then walk out ........

Dealers are so full of st, a minute ago, you said they told you that a deal was being done, normal dealer bullst, someone sends an email and asked about a car, and according to the dealer, "a deal is almost closed", I bet you the person after you was told that a chap with a 4.3 was just closing a deal on the car ..........

Turn on the computer and start looking ....... biggrin

I'm not going to slate the dealersmile maybe my expectations on the value of my car are unrealistic....smile

I had a figure in mind, and its not going to change because that's what I feel was fair....they see it differently and that's fine, I'm not desperate...smile

I've just been out and reminded myself, how nice my motor ishehe
