I test drove the STI with PPP fitted :D

Got out of my MY97 and test drove the sti8 thinking 'how much better can this be? , surly not £15K better!

20 mins later - sold!

Went back today to get more info as to delivery date this month? - and got asked 'fancy a blast in the Sti7 with PPP' - 'Yes I said'

20 mins later - Sold! (to be fitted when 1000 miles done)

I cannot believe that you could improve the car any more but WOW!

back to the cherished my97 PPP for a couple of weeks that seems sooooo sluggish!

LOL

It's fatal to the wallet when that happens, but sooo worth it :D

DeerHunter 08 March 2003 06:42 PM

couldnt afford the sti8 really but...

its only money! :D

My morgage is now less than my car repayments - i must be nuts!

:D - impression of me while Test Driving !

quote of the day: 'its so hard to sell these cars' - sarcastic salesman!

Aye good for you, similar thing happened to me when I got my WRX. Going to testdrive a PPP'd WRX once I find somewhere that has a demo ;)

Congrats.......wasnt Mainland was it?

Tempted myself,but the old"living beyond my means" springs to mind.

DeerHunter 09 March 2003 09:25 PM

yoza - exactly what my mum said - :D

Mainland is correct!

Pretty switched on, well looked after, no complaints from buying from them!

Better than intermoto..... (Danny was the only decent guy there) - and he's at mainland anyway!

It's worth every penny for the grin :D

I was in there on Sunday 12 noon,spoke to a salesman with spikey hair,about the prices standard and with PPP.

He offered me a drive in the blue STI8 parked next to the golf with the massive exhaust,but I knew if I went out in it I would have to have it ,so I declined :(

Did you see the black STI7 in the rear car park for sale section,it was an STI7 but had an STI8 scoop,fooled me,but then again thats not hard to do.

I pass Mainland every day to go to the lloyd gym,Im contemplating changing my route,far to upsetting passing those STI8s each day :(

Must mean when you come to part-ex or sell it privately ;)

Anyone ever had, "part-ex sir certainly, i can sell this car in 10 minutes how about 3K above book price" LOL
