Will I get a 996TT X50 for £50,000 ?

[roshambo]

Just wondering, would £50k get me a 996TT X50? Certainly not from Porsche, but a good specialist?

Would like an 02 car onwards (for the later spec), mileage not that important, but under 30k would be ideal.

Cheers,

R.

One in the classifieds for 48K - [url]www.pistonheads.com/sales/157692.htm[/url], but higher mileage.

Yeh lovely but mileage a bit too strong.
I have an 02 non X50 with 33k miles on it and really dont want a lot more miles on the next car, so would like 33k or under. Know its asking a lot !

From when I was searching, most traders want £55k+ for X50's, they will come down, albeit slowly IMO due to rarity...

Looks like he decided to change his Exhaust/Exhaust Tips during its photographic life.

If your on a budget, you can't afford to be as picky - if you want an X50, accept you will have to comprimise elsewhere (eg mileage) for your budget, or wait a long time to get a good example at the right price!

Would it not be better to spend a few quid making yours faster?

If you've already considered this and definitely want an X50 car, PM me, I know of one that was available a few weeks ago at under £55k. 02 02, black/black, 18k miles, serviced @ 2,500, 4,700, 10,000 & 16,000 Aug 06 inc plugs, recent tyres, BOSE (no nav/PCM). Still some OPC warranty left IIRC. I'll chase it up if it's of interest.

No need for secrets, its on a/trader with a volvo dealer, been on/off for a few months, apparently they're sticking on the price..

Can't find it - send a link please?

IF it's the same car, it's on SOR at a different brand dealership. I am in touch with the actual owner so can deal direct.

Same car? 18k miles, under £55k was mentioned - this one is 21k miles & £57k

Ro.

[30121980]

no - not same car, far from it..one has pcm/sat nav the other on ebay has none

[MaKSiNG]

That first car posted is lovely and a good price too.
Surely 44k is not that many miles on an 02 car??? That is way below average.

Did you ever sort an X50 out yourself in the end?

[rimmer]

i have to say that the one on ebay does look really good value when you consider that less than five years ago it would have cost well over £90k
