Thoughts on or does anyone know this 355?
Discussion
I'm still not 100% certain I want to change from my current car but do keep coming back to this advert at Castle sports cars - http://www.castlesportscars.co.uk/used-cars/view/4...
I've always loved black 355s and this one does appear to be a very good price for age/mileage, especially from a dealer. I'm going to try and pop over to see it next weekend but any thoughts in the meantime would be welcome.
I very nearly purchased a 355 3 years or so ago but decided to stay with TVR, the itch is now back and I'm umming over whether to scratch it or not, that said I'm also perusing classifieds for the Maser Gransport.

Black 355 is the business, mine sits alongside a Gransport that is for sale, happy for you to see them side by side and decide
Thanks all so far - Mark, thats a kind offer and I'll give you one guess which Gransport it was that stood out most for me . Trouble is I don't even have my 350 on the market yet so looking at private sales is a no for now - really don't like wasting peoples time when I'm in no position to buy. At least with a trade sale it opens up more options should a perfect car come up and I decide I can't wait. Biggest problem for me is I have a love/hate relationship with my car. I love the noise & event but often just want a change especially since June this year when my TVR had it's first problem in my 3 years of ownership - not normally an issue but it was playing up when I needed it most, the day before my Dad passed away in hospital and I can't seem to forgive it for that if you see what I mean.
As for Castle, I purchased my T350 there from Ben and was looked after very well. There was a big issue but they sorted it out smoothly and professionally and as such I'd have no qualms buying from them again. My big concern is their 355 is towards the bottom end of the market for the model, is there a particular reason for this?

Zippee, I think that car is fairly priced for miles and colour etc.
I can tell you from personal experiance that the longer you look at these cars you will see the same old cars unsold for months, asking and getting are 2 different things ....

I looked at the car last year when Castle were still in their old premises. When I saw it I thought it was a very clean car indeed - has had some paint of course, but good job. The kick plates weren't that bad either and the interior was vert tidy.
I've been to their new place several times since and hadn't noticed the car around, even in the unit they own next door. So there's a fair chance that the car has come back to them, perhaps they took it in PX?
Ben Speak posts on here sometimes - his name's something like LL00NEY - he's the main salesguy there - why not mail him thru PH or ring them up and ask to speak to him?

Evening,
This is a 355 that I have sold a couple of times over the years and is a pleasure to have back. I last sold it to a close personal friend of the company approx 18mths ago and the car is now ready for a new owner.
The fact I have had the car a couple of times over the years would account for the confusion on here as regards me having the car in stock for a while.
