Are these cars a case of rent it on lease for a short time then jump ship ?

Seems to be a lot of them on PH and Autotrader sales, low mileage with 1 or 2 previous owners. May suggest that people get them on a 2 or 3 year lease, then give up at the earliest opportunity throwing them back on to the 2nd hand market.

Not looking to get one, but wondering if they suffer from issues that tells people they need to get rid?

If you can cope with the MPG, they are actually pretty easy cars to live with day to day. As well documented also worth changing the PZeros as they are awful in the cold/wet. Still loving mine after almost 2 years in. There's nothing that comes close for the money and at £25k for one a couple of years old they are geat value.

It's also great fun throwing a little bit of cash at them to modify them to your tastes. They are decent out of the box but for a relatively small outlay you can really sharpen up the handling and/or make them look even more awesome.

Not couple of years old I agree, but 2nd hand M3, Vauxhall VXR8, Porsche 996 ?
(if you choose to ignore the ticking time-bomb of those Porsche engines wink )

I agree though, the mustangs do look a decent buy 2nd hand in the sub-£25k range, especially as you say if they can be customised/modified, as this is a large attraction to cars of this ilk. And of course if you live close to a fuel garage wink

Plenty of choice on the 2nd hand market anyways, which is good for potential buyers.
