The drivers seat looks in a bit of a mess considering the low(ish) miles!

I know it's relative, but is it expensive?

No. Looks like a Walkinshaw exhaust.

It's a know car on Vxronline and used to belong to a dentist in the area who has now bought a GenF.

The price seems a bargain for an E3

Yes, I think you're probably right, but we don't know how they've reached the price point.

Consider the calibre of the car, those photos were so low res it doesn't do the car justice. Surely it can't be hard for a car dealer selling £30K cars to have a £100 digital camera and be capable of uploading a decent pic.

You only need a good smart phone for high res pics. My S3 can take superb photos. (Crap as a phone though)

Nice car. Really, really nice. Sadly, my tax return has wiped me out. I'd be offering my VT2 as p/x if it was running properly, but the parts are still on order. FML.

I think this model variant will hold its price quite well, as it will always sit above the earlier one. Bit like the way R34 Skylines are worth more than R33 Skylines, etc. Can see this only losing £10K-£12K over the next ten years.

It's cheap compared to the E3 I bought, albeit I got mine nearly a year ago now!! but as ARAF mentioned, it might be priced for condition to sell, really can't see how that drivers seat has got in that condition over 21K miles ?

Didn't the E3 have those horrid oblong fake exhausts as standard? Maybe the dealer doesn't know what he has - or he's priced it to sell quickly. scratchchin

If you work on the basis of it being 2 years newer than a £20k car, then that's a lot of depreciation for this car to have over the next 2 years. If you work on the fact that it is 58% of original purchase price, after 3 years then again, it's good for a large saloon.


Tattooboy,
When you add up the bits and bobs that the Walkinshaw family had already fitted to your car, I think you did very well. cool

Yes it did. I think as you say the dealer most probably isn't aware of what he has...

I would be seriously considering this, if it only was black...
