A beaut as it is, I really don't think you could get me to part with £13K for an S3

I looked at it a while ago, it's very nice but £13K?

no ta...

[Psychobert]

I fear problems.. Won't really be run in and you could find the usual niggles that exist won't have been sorted.. That said, does look a cracking car. Always liked the S3

[bugmeister]

Lovely car but way too much money. As already pointed out, TVR's like to be driven and that mileage has potential disaster written all over it. If you have that kind of cash buy a reasonable mileage sorted car for £7 -£8k and keep the rest for your own personalisation.

Looks nice on the out set but parting with £13K for an S3?? I think I'd probably go for a cheaper end Griff or such like. Or at least save a bit more and get a better Griff.

Hasn't this car croppsed up before...? Got a funny feeling it was up for sale at Fernies a while back..? (or was that another one?)

When you can buy a Griff or V.good V8S for £12-£13K this is way overpriced!!!

You could get a V good V8S, but I think a slightly tired Griff for that.. I could be wrong, but I thnk the cheaoer Griffs are the older ones and there may be a few that have been mistreated around for that money.. Could get a cracking bargin though if you find the right one..

Nope i've seen the best S3 it lives in Gravesend and is BRG

[markbigears]

i think its horses for courses. I'd rather go for a mint S series than a tired Griff. You would only end up spending more getting a crap car in mint condition than buying a mint one to begin with. And as for mileage .... as long as its serviced according to manufactors spec and you give it a long run every week, then why would you get any problems? i havent for the past 2 years.
