Only the 2nd white 350 I've seen (Bradders IIRC being the other) and it's geourgeous - but why the hell such poor photos??? Just a shame it's out of budget.... (20-22k for me)

I think that car may just be the old TMS demonstrator. It has a midlands reg but has obviously lost its purple stripes! May be worth asking the question as, if so, it had a very hard early life and will be on its second engine as the first let go whilst I had it on loan - but that may be a good thing?

If you're keen, make 'em an offer - if they're keen to sell you can probably make a deal that's more palatable smile

definatly a nice colour, and very different interior,

being a garage, they might drop the price a bit, i got 1250 dropped off mine and a 5 star warrenty thrown in aswell, always better to buy from dealerships, who can u go to if something goes wrong when brought privatly

Yep it sure is. The car has had a VERY hard life, and from what I hear it's on engine no 3! It was one of the first cars I looked at in Jan 2005 (when it had the stripes) and the interior was VERY tatty already!

In June it went through BCA Walsall Auctions, being sold by LEX. It made just over £17k.

Well I was trying to be kind smile It certainly had a tired interior too. Paul from TMS (now PPC) certainly put it through it's paces on the demo runs - those dougnuts sold me mine wink
