Just can't seem to shift my Scoob at the mo, even with a part-ex plus cash offer on the table.
Anyone know of someone who's looking for a Scooby (see the For Sale forum) who'd like to swap their jalopy plus a wad of cash for it ?
Would consider most cars up to a value of £8k, as long as it's practical of sorts (nipper on the way!)
Cheers

Paul,
Just for you mate

SiPie,
Hehehe, still more butch than yours, despite the "girlie" colour (come on P1 owners, let's duff him up
)
Benview,
I thought you were asking for around £10k mate ??
I'm not looking to spend over £8k with the precarious job front at the moment.

Theo
Got the MAF sorted, well cleaned anyway and now running sweet
Took it into Nobles last Saturday thinking a price re a trade in may be the only way to go
and when normally salesmen are making you a really hot cup of coffee to keep you there.... this guy wasn't even entertaining the trade in 
They were too busy moaning about Subaru's decision to drop £3k off the new prices. He was talking about the total value that had just been wiped off their stock list and saying that even they would have trouble shifting a car with higher mileage as they couldn't offer a warranty blah, blah....
So in short Theo, looks like I'm stuck with it forever and ever mate

Me too mate, to paraphrase a quote from Trainspotting
"It's a sh*te state of affairs to be in Tommy"
Bl**dy Subaru UK....grumble....
I've had some really cheeky trade-in offers....£10k from VW (bunch of idiots), but no-one is even willing to underwrite the car until after the New Year. I suppose I can wait until after Christmas and try again, but I really don't want to give it away to someone who just doesn't understand the car and the enthusiasm.
Cougar,
Not a problem mate.
If you've got internet, perhaps you could post some details here mate and upload a pic on Turbosport ?

Howsabout a nice Mercedes 190e 2.3-16v Cosworth?
Quiet, spacious, refined, bulletproof.
It will accomodate small child (I know, I've got an 18mth old Daughter), pram, shopping, the whole shebang with absolutely no worries.

Mint at 85,000 miles with an equipment list that puts most new cars to shame.
Over £3000 spent in the last three months
Comes with spare complete engine & gearbox (valued at £2500)

I think I'll pass Merc.
Like I said, too old for me and I'm not wanting to fork out for servicing and repairs on a car right now seeing as Child #1 is on it's way.

Nah - don't wanna sell it anyways... Spent too much on it!!! Besides, I bought it solely for carting my little girl around in.
Baby number 1 eh?
Welcome to the best club in the world mate - it'll all pale into insignificance when the moment arrives.
No doubt you'll get loads of advice from everyone - so I won't bore you.
Just make sure you do the following:
BE THERE AT THE BIRTH, BOTH SHE AND THE OFFSPRING NEED YOU. AND FFS CUT THE UMBILICAL CORD - I couldn't as I was shaking so much, and I sort of regret not giving the little'un her first breath.
