2nd Hand Ghibli

[wfo123]

Hi all,

I'm thinking of buying a used Ghibli.

There are a few nice looking 3.0 diesels around for £21K to £22K that look interesting. I'm expecting to hold onto it for approx 3 years where I fully expect the price to drop to nearer 15K. Based on my high level calculations this is still way better than off than paying £2K to £3K deposit on a boring lease vehicle at approx £350 p/m, and I'll have much more fun!

We'd use it as the main family car for longer journeys (we're going electric for the school run, shorter trips etc).

Am I mad PHers?

I was so excited to notice your thread title - but then realised you weren't referring the the late 1960s original!!

Could have been worse. Could have been buying a 1990s one...

Ha - if only (1960s one that is!). Thanks all for your comments so far, all very useful. Petrol vs Diesel makes a lot of sense. Unfortunately a decent one looks to be just out of my budget...

Out of interest, what are the typical servicing costs? £300 - £400? Annual intervals? Anything major I should look out for (assuming I'm going Diesel with '14 or '15 model up to 40K miles on the clock)?
