Good luck.

Took me best part of a year, all I wanted was manual, not black, grey or silver, rear parking and adaptive seats ...

How restrictive is your spec? there are certainly some nice looking manuals around.

Thanks . Red would be nice but not too exact ,yes there are plenty for saleb but some have been for sale for months , been to see a few asking top money and the cars have not been up to top standards. I'm fortunate I don't need finance so private is the best route as long as not expecting a dealer price tag. Might just end up going dealer route and save a few more penny's .

Stunning but above my budget I'm afraid . Thank you though as this does make for good price comparison . Slipped up in November as a chap I know let his 08 plate go traded inn for 45k with 13k on the clock traded for a 430 drop top Ferrari . Just was not in the position to buy off him then

Search goes on

No worries, that's a lovely car though if you could haggle a bit on the price, gen 1 with the mezger engine but with the gen 2 interior and PCM 3, and in red low miles and manual, In fact fk it I might buy it myself....

Joking aside if I didn't have the GT3 and was on the look out for some pork I would buy it.

It took me about 3 months to find my car. It was about 12k over my budget but I managed to get a cracking deal as it had been at the dealership for 9 months. I have only ever seen one other that was the spec I wanted since I bought my car last Feb. That red one is fantastic though.

Thanks , the trouble is the car you want is always over budget , not keen on borrowing money on cars as the depreciation is bad enough, and yes that red one is a stunner and well done finding your car

I so regret picking up my Cobalt 997T this morning. I cried all the way home dreaming of storm trooper and how good we would have been together.
