Sorry they are asking for 2.5 why would you offer the asking price? Start at 2 and settle for 2.25.

I have no idea what this tank is worth by the way.

Also not too keen on green with black inside

Do you live near to a Filling Station?;)

How will you test drive it without any road tax?

[leesharp]

Fair enough... ;)

Superb cars. Check the service history and that the LCD display on the dashboard has not dimmed out. It can be quite a job to replace it. Pretty bulletproof cars.

Don't get one with chrome wheel arches, tinted windows and smell of curry...

Brilliant - absolutely brilliant........ :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

We get a lot of those in our place - but generally ok! Some do try to run them and run them and not worry about the odd service every ten years or so... i could be exaggerating a bit..

[harveybobbles]

That's how my Dad looks after his Accord. Just drive it and drive it! In 5 years all it's had tyres, bulbs, wipers and I MADE him have the timing belt done...!

Lee - the one you sent me today was an R reg and it was blue - mileage was low at 81k tho - that was the one I commented on!!

[jeannieblue]

Just looked at the green one -its over priced....

Later ones are going for around 4k.

Mileage not too bad - has it had the 120k service? Plugs, timing belt etc??

Hi Jean
not got to that stage yet,main reason my wife dont like green,and i dont like the black leather:-)
Think i will give it a miss,but do like the blue one though,just got to find the time to see it

The older R Reg one looked better cared for to me, apart from a small piece of front valance, it looked fine.

I love these, had one for about 4 years. Indestructible. They do seem to start leaking/weeking power seering fluid but I just kept it topped up (steering went noisy if I didn't). This one does seem a bit pricey for it's age.

Oh and check the needles on the dash (they tend to stop lighting up) and the LCD radio read out tends to fail. Not show-stoppers I know, but something to be aware of.

Hi
so you think its overpriced? what would you offer then, i did offer him £2,000, said he would take £2,200
but i would only offer £2,000 at most,maybe get back to him and offer less :-)
