Hi All

Just wanted to introduce myself, first car was a mk1 escort I fitted Mexico wings :-) - last 2 cars were SL500 and XF, with a huge list I between ( have you ever wrote down every car you have owned , ) but it's time to step up .

So I am in the market for a Volante, 06/07 year is as dear as I can stretch with a bit left over for 'servicing & repairs'

I have gained a lot of information from this Forum but would like to ask a few more Questions to help me find the right one

Warenty - if bought privately, but had a 140 point inspection by AM would they sell me a warranty or are there any good alternatives ?

Independent inspection or AM inspection

Private or main dealer - I have seen a private one with the exact spec I like and it's in my price range, just a bit nervous of buying private !

Thanked all

Thanks everyone, I have order the AM Bible and can't wait for it to be delivered, Tarks63 - I have sent you a msg ref your potential sale,

I have been in contact with the seller of a 2006 black with 23000mls in autotrader it has full AM history and looks like the right spec for me, ( don't know how to link the advert ), will see how it develops

Yes that's the one - I have not discussed price yet, would expect to get a good reduction for private sale ! Will take a look at used approved AM as well. My local dealer ( Wilmslow ) has a 2006 but 46000 mls - but I would like a lower mileage
