Without seeing the condition IMHO £30 - 34k for a private sale. The spec is high, the miles are low, if it's in good condition then it sounds like a good buy dependant on the price of course !!! So how much is the seller looking for?

[scoobyc]

thats what i was planning on maybe even 35k for immaculate, but hes looking for 37k

[r1_jon]

It does look in very good condition, so may be worth the extra. Don't think I would go to £37k though. £35k max.

yea guessed right. Yea i can't see me paying over £5k for it as its still a 6 year old car at the end of the day.
ps what chance you taking the link out?

Sorry mate :-) Done...

Have you seen the one in the classifieds on this site?
Black with about 40k. Looks nice too.

[scoobyc]

cheers for that.
Yea seen that one and looks good but no sport seats or pse and kind of set my heart on them.

Surely a dealer like 911 virgin, Cridfords etc would let this car go for early mid 30s ?
I would have thought private is late 20s or very early 30s?

You've found exactly what you're looking for, and it's taken 5 months so far. How much longer do you want to wait?

You've got two choices:

Tell him what you're prepared to pay and walk away if he doesn't agree or buy it!

[scoobyc]

yes i know its what i'm looking for but when i'm thirsty i wouldn't pay £8 for a pint now would i

Have you never been to "spearmint rhino" in town?

[guyvert1]

or and RB&V in Spearmint @ Prague

Its a good spec, esp for pre-facelift, 'but' £37k is high for private, I'd go £35k if immac and passes OPC check
