I took a deposit on the Ultima last night and fingers crossed they intend to pick the car up by next weekend

Now the problems start.........

I've been looking at the s/h Sagaris market and there are some nice examples out there but I've also been offered what I think are some cracking deals on 2 new ones (Reflex Charcoal or Spectraflair Silver) which includes a discount and servicing.

So do I buy a s/h now as a Xmas present to myself as it will make a change from socks and smellies or do I buy one of the new on offer and wait till March to take delivery.

The other option is to buy a s/h one now and then order a new one for Sep 06/Mar 07.

Either way I have to get something nice to take my son to the 2006 Le Mans Classis in July as I promised him after I returned from the 2004 Classic

FYI there's approx £9k difference between the new cars and the s/h one's.

Any pointers appreciated

Well the 2 second hand ones are in good colours, and assuming they are nice low miles and good interior trim combos sound like cracking deals. Given this choice, if I liked the dealer and the deal I'd go second hand. Then you have £9k in your pocket for Christmas

Its crazy out there right now, you can pick up a Sagaris for the price of a top spec new T350.

I'm sure there are other 'Stock' cars otu there, but i'm sure you are more than capable of finding them!

If it were me, id go for a new stock car, meaning i could take delivery NOW of a NEW car, get a huge discount and also be sure that it get's run in properly

The dealer with the Reflex and Spectra gave me a list of about 8 cars.

I also like the Laser Blue.

I have been ringing around a bit but backed off until the car had a deposit down on it.

I'm ringing a couple of dealers today to see what offers can be had.

Keep you posted.

You don't have a problem....you have CHOICE....lots of it.....

If you can find a Sagaris in a colour you like with an internal spec that you like, bearing in mind that you will have to live with it knowing you could have chosen your own.........AND you can avoid a wait AND save some money on a new one.....well...can't see a problem there.....

What a great bit of Christmas shopping.
Tell you what..to save you the trouble of looking......you go and try to find a decent pressie for two of my elderly aunties and I'll go and find you a nice Sagaris.......

Beware though........It'll end up Spectreflair or Yellow

Have fun.......keep us posted....
