Hi M8

Tell us what you are looking for

Model year
Doors
Import/UK

BHP
Security (great prices on our door step)
Where you are looking
Etc

and I am sure we can help you out.

I will be organising a meet soon most likely 8th June as nothing seems to be on then on the midlands calendar. So come along and see how we can help. Keep your eyes out in the Midlands section for my opening post later on in the week.

Cheers

Neal (cov meet organiser)

NM:

UK Turbo 2000, 1997 P reg.
Silver, 4 door.
72k miles.
Standard I think, except backbox which is oval and has WRS stamped on it (it burbles nicely)
Service History
Some minor bump damage - new front and rear bumpers - all done at same time I think - so could indicate rear ender followed by being pushed into another car. Front bumper slightly out of line, though wings look like original, and no crumpling of them, so maybe light impact. Receipts for work are with documentation.
Slight ticking from one of the heads area, and whining P/steering (I think) on low speed tight turns.
Cat 1 serpistar, but no tracker - think my insurance co want one of them (

What ya reckon?

scooby_si

Depends how much etc, is this private i guess? Noises on full lock can be CV joint as a general car thing init which either way aint cheap. Devils in the detail of course but u can b a picky bleeder with scoob sales at the min if u aint in a rush, wana wait 6 months for my MY97 R plate UK with bits?

How much you reckon?

And yes, I will be picky, probably looking at Chris Palmer's 5 door this week too.

The car I looked at was owned by a scoobynetter I believe before the current owner (who has only had it a month!!!!) by the name of Richard Moger.

Well i'd like to say 15k so mine is worth even more but in reality it does seem a good price which is reflected i guess by the points you mention
Si
PS yes i stalk u now i no u live in the area so i no askin price was 6500

scooby_si

**** wish i hadn't looked on parkers now thou if mine gets any cheaper i shall have 2 sell my **** 2 get my next planned vehicle
Si (with his expensive bottylol)

Didn't understand your reply (do you know the car?), but looking at Parkers it's worth £5500 to £6000.

Just waiting on a couple of things about the car, but gonna look at others too.

Parkers guide: http://www.parkers.co.uk/pricing/used_car/valuation.aspx?pid=28437&miles=75&model_id=445&sou rce=parkers&has_stylesheet=&has_menu=True"etype=bu y&has_banner=True&partnerURL=&partner_img=

I'd put it below good (cause of body repairs), but a fair bit over poor.

Agreed m8 although i was doing 72k miles & apologies 4 my previously not understandle rantings u will get used 2 me lol
I was always lookin at A1 section of Parkers as woodnt want owt else, dont think i no the car thou m8 so cant comment on it's status
Si (+ramblings)

scooby_si

also the haggle factor i suppose

sulli

Forgot - it needs two front tyres too

Not having owned a 4WD car before - is the wear even all round, or still more on the front (as the rears were much better).
