ive not been to see the car, although i too have seen it on AT

it always surprises me how some professional traders are bad at advertising. If you are going to offer a car for sale for the thick end of 50k surely you should wash the thing before you photograph it?!

Your right, wash would go a long way. The car has crappy wood interior, but I'd get rid of that.

does it tick all the right boxes for you, or are you just finding it harder and harder not to buy one?

Both... The car pictured in the advert whilst dirty, still looks compelling.

That is just down the road from me - If I get the chance I'll go and have a look. I'm surprised a car of that calibre is there, though. Usually full of rep-mobiles so wouldn't expect much knowledge of the marque at all......

When i was looking for my motor i noticed many dirty looking cars for strong money, like you say if you are advertising quality motor cars and you want to give a good first impression at least wash the car and take some decent pics.

What is wrong with a Finance Reposession?
Isn't that just where the last owner could not keep up the payments and they took the car away from him/her in order to sell it, so that they could recoup the costs?

I hadn't thought about it before this post, but if they can't keep up the payments on the car, what about the payments for servicing ?

Last service in 05 so history is out. FOr this amount of cash it has to all stack up. Selling it on will be difficult. Pure shag and hassle.
