Noooo.. don't do it mate!!!!

You'll be like Blairout.

Buy a Turbo instead, or a GT3.

Presume it's a 3.4.

I was was offered two similar cars but both 2000 reg for £27-£28k. This was a couple of months ago.

Hope this helps.

Definitely less than 30k .. But it depends on whether the current owner is going to factor in the fixes the opc check will inevitably produce ...

yes OPC is gauranteed to say the brakes are on their way out, and possibly suspension needs replacing in a few thousand miles, so ive heard from other people anyways. . . .

[ballcock]

If you like the car , and it has all the bells and whistles you desire then put your hand in your pocket , and send it for the check. Then bargain on the strength of the results.

[ballcock]

Probably not a bad idea . However you're asking the owner to agree to pay costs he has no idea of yet. But if he goes with it , it's win win for you , best of luck.

30 seems a little on the high side. I be wanting to pay about 28 including the OPC warranty on it.

Don't think going over 70k will alter the price massively, especially if you've stuck a warranty on it.

I reckon this is a much better buy....

Me too. Though it already had the warranty, which needed renewing, and needed a service. I'll sell before 75k with the OPC warranty still in place.

[vesuvius996]

Got the mail thanks. To be honest I wouldn't worry too much about a fall in value after 75k miles - the warranty covers cars up to 125k, although I agree that £75k seems to be a psychological number for some reason. Good luck with it fella.

remember a dealer will put a£6k to £10k margin -so figure out retail price (easy and take these numbers away and then add £1500 to get him tempted... or just call up a couple of dealers and see what they offer for it...and add £1500 to sweeten the deal for the seller
