122000 Vantage - Main dealer

[Thorny]

Interesting that this is being sold by a main dealer?

£29k - good buy?

Seems a bit expensive to me. Apart from Cruise, it looks similar to mine - except that mine had almost 90k miles less on it when I bought it, but only cost about £3k more (albeit from a private sale).

(And my black interior is nicer than cream).

I dont believe it, is it not 12k miles? Who could possibly do that amount of miles with cream seats?

I wouldn't think so. 12k miles would be extremely low, and £29k would be too cheap for a 12k 2006 Vantage - especially from a main dealer - unless it has a history of being wrapped around a tree at some point in its past.

The adverts states that the interior is Obsidian Black Leather

Out of curiosity, what does the collective think this would go for as a private sale?

I have a history of leggy toys. And some have been cars!

I think he was joking!

Well ive been offered £25K trade in the past on my 2006 74K mile old car ...this must have been a low £20's trade in

Private sale got to be £25K ish, when you can get much lower mileage cars private for £30k

If its been serviced and they're offering a warranty / you can have it inspected I'd not let mileage be a worry. I'd probably save more for something less used though

Private: couple of grand less than dealer
Dealer: couple of grand less than that list price

In all honesty its good to see these early Vantages are still strong money with a more reasonable mileage main dealer car at around 38k.
