    Trying to find myself a new car so I was on autotrader anyway. I am in Dundee so these cars are at least 400+ miles away from me.
  • Do you think it will be easy to drive? I have just taken delivery of a sat nav, just need the car now lol. Are you getting a corsa as well, I am ringing the insurance company now to see where the bodykit etc stand.

    Best to get some idea of prices for the insurance. I drive corsa's at work and dont like them at all. Very poor rear visabillity.
    I am looking for a new Impreza for a bit of fun.
  • Should have guessed from your name lol. I've been driving them with BSM and like them. I just emailed that link and the glass's guide price and offered 9k.

    This was my reply.

    The above post is either from personal experience or is my opinion based on the person God has made me and the way I understand things. Please don't be offended if that opinion differs from yours, but feel free to click the 'Thanks' button if it's at all helpful!
  • The one thats priced under £9k is worth a phone call to find out how much you can get knocked off that. If its cheap enough take an experienced driver with you to share the drive home.
  • Weird, did a search for Amanda Gilbody and it bought up this forum, but what is posted on the google link doesn't appear in this forum. Whoever got £300 off and dealt with amanda please post in here. :)

    are you attempting to be a used car salesperson and is there a course you have been on that means you know more about the pricing of a car than me?

    perhaps i should take some lessons off you?

    what is your job? i could advise you of yours?

    i know what the corsa vxr costs and what its worth. thank you for your uneducated pricing but that is my job!

    I'd send an email back, something like,

    Hi Mandy,

    Thanks for your reply, normally I have to call premium rate lines to get that sort of rudeness, but with you I'm getting it for free.

    Do you mind if I bookmark your email address for future use.

    Regards

    Big Jake

    PS Looking forward to more abuse.
  • Thing is, I REALLY want that car lol. Wish she hadn't emailed that though as I am unlikely to go there now.
