What is a limited budget?

Three at Gmund:

There is one,Blue lovely condition £18k,not a bad price.I suppose that also depends on the budget.On saying that you would pay a bit more if the car was in good nick,the problem with cheap ones are the hidden costs.

Spec Cars are dear, but the car will be spot on, plus their 12 month warranty is very comprehensive.

seen all 3 cars at www.gmundcars.com , 1 x Rhd , 2 x Lhd , all 3 are great cars with great specs, good-luck

I think thats a 930 at Specialist Cars, for the moment I want to see if I can stretch to a 965, budget is £24k.

[hoges11]

The Gmund cars look great. The RHD is a little out of my price range and the missus wont let me have another lefty.

two at Northway

The 2 cars at Northway are well worth a look. The silver 3.3 is immaculate and stunning on the outside if you can put up with the red interior. The LHD 3.6 goes like the clappers and ver nice colour.
You should be able to negotiate on the price as thr silver ones been around a couple of months and the 3.6's owner has emigrated and its WIP

[hoges11]

Tried and failed to negotaite the price down with Northway and my budget is fixed (1K short of what they are asking) so need to look elsewhere, they are nice tho arent they.

[lanesra10]

Was speaking to Ray this morning, he is not desperate to sell the silver one as its to good and is quite happy to keep it until the spring.
Are you the chap that offered £23k last week!? By the way Northways do not have enough Margin in there cars to drop £2k.

[hoges11]

Nope wasnt me. I could afford to go to 24 so thats what I offered. From my albeit limited experience Ray seems a top guy and his cars do seem good value.

I love the look of the silver one and am really tempted to go and have a look at it this weekend. Out of interest, what did you think to the interior as you can't tell from the photos. Is it so loud that my eyes will bleed every time I get in?

[mach]

Stand down.. They've taken a deposit on it this morning! It did look very good value to be fair.

Hoges11 - I take it you have already seen the one in the classifieds at Oakhills, which is within your budget...

[lanesra10]

Theres still the LHD 3.6..... well worth a look

[hoges11]

I have to confess it was me . I took advice (thanks Pete)begged,stole and borrowed,called in a few favours, rang Northway this morning and a very nice man took my deposit. FTR the inside is a little on the bright side and a bit tatty, (any one got any info. on re colonising?) but externally the car is immaculate,looks great in silver and drives really well. When I was there I had a look at the LHD 3.6 and its gorgeous, wish I could have swapped the interiors although silver with grey may not look so good, but wifey banned me from LHD and I didnt want to launch an appeal if I didnt have to. I never go to see the one at Oakhills and I guess I probably won't now but it does look good value.
