Seems a bit much, although it does only have 10K miles on the clock.

10k miles not necessarily a benefit on a car that age, you can just as easy get problems through under use as over use, they're just different problems.

Yep, definately. There's a 2000 new spec Griff for 28 in Sprint.

Dusty, why dont you buy a part a week? Then you can spec the car exactly as you want it and, lets face it, it wont take you any longer before you end up with the finished article. There are some brakes for sale on PH classifieds and I think I saw some seats too

Brilliant idea!
It will be like buying that magazine which comes with part of an RC car each month.

Now then, which bit to buy first...

Dusty, if Griff prices carry on like this, you'd better joing the 'S' forum

...or get your ***** wallet out!

I started reading this chain with great interest as I have an immaculate '97 Griff with just under 10,000 miles on the clock. I bought it last September from a dealer for a few k less than £24k (only 7k miles at the time) so delighted by the appreciation(!).

I thought I'd check out the ad. Noticed the light conversion, the full leather interior, still didn't justify £3k. Then I noticed the Tuscan boot conversion, the roof conversion and now I'm thinking that £24k for a low mileage misnamed Tuscan doesn't seem too bad at all . Go for it DustyC!

I feel certain that the next PHer that enters their showroom will draw their attention to it......

This is my old car - I've just traded in for a T350T, as I wanted something different - It's been lovingly cherished (but I am biased ), fully serviced (whether it's covered the mileage or not) If you're interested in further details - just email me through PH.
Rich.

P.S. something wrong with the pictures though...
