Doesn't seem to be many decent cars for sale privately, is everyone keeping them tucked away for winter.
Don't mind buying from a dealer, at least you get a bit of back up if things do go wrong, but hate getting ripped off.
Rather go private, get the car inspected by someone who knows what they are doing and spend the extra on some goodies.
So come on, anyone out there fancy a nice wad of cash in their pocket, and yes, I have been offered a couple of very nice 400's, but sadly, my budget doesn't quite stretch.

Think most people will wait till the spring to sell, as prices seem to firm up then(they have the last 4 years).
Mine is tucked up for the winter(well since sept). Thought about selling and going GT3 route or carclub, in the end have decided to keep the Noble for a few more years.smile

Agree with the buy private, save yourself a few grand(then spend a grand of that saving on a 2 year warrenty with kerridges) that way peace of mind and still a grand left for a bit of modding.

Owens car is in the classified, well sorted car(2.5 but plenty of power and a new engine) Depends what you are looking for model wise and colour (portifino blue being the bestsmile )

Good luck in your search, come spring there will be a better choice of stock.

And I feel obliged to add (now that I've hurt Owen's feelings laugh) that it has been spannered by the person who is top of my list of people that I'd want to work on my car...Matt Foulks.

In a roundabout way I was trying to say that Owen's car is sound.

I can't belive he is selling it so cheap considering all that has been done, If I could instantly sell mine I would take owens in a shot.
