..one for sale near me, sounds like a nice one...what kinda money do these make now..guys asking 3k ono for it, 160k miles, immaculate paint and interior, but its an auto??..

If it's a good 1,it should be worth it.:B_thumb:

[biggbn]

its been owned for 4 years and prev owner was a mechanical engineer who treated the car to a full, high quality respray...so no fading here..oh and its the yellow one..always wanted one...auto putting me off a wee bit...il take a gander anyway and see if there may be a bargainicous deal to be had... gbn

3k is a tad steep - nearer 2.5 would be a little more realistic ;)

[ANDYRACER]

3k for a yellow one is cheap.

If it was another colour then id agree with Mrs Mopp.

Dont let the auto box put you off. Go for it buddy........:wiggle:

They're worth what ever your willing to pay, there are some reall sheds that are going for £1500, have a good look around first, don't buy the first one you see.

Is it the one with the colour coded bumpers strips etc and jet balck rear lights? Seen that one kicking about Broughty Ferry

[p fandango]

resprayed, high(ish) mileage, tinted out lights no way thats worth top money

Was looking on Pistonheads recently. Is it my imagination or are the values increasing? Scrappage scheme?

[biggbn]

think the auto thing is gonna be a big put off....i may have a big auto next week anyhow, aint that so moppy haha.....probably have a wee look at 855 anyhow but unless its bog standard and mint, (and available much more cheaply..!!)it wont interest me...

LOL, there are a couple at work who now seem to think they're old car is worth £2k.
I tried explaining the scheme is a waste of time but they won't listen.
You could save yourself more money by just buying one a year old and selling your old car private. The leccy bought a brand new BMW 320D for £27k, me and a mate found one a year old with less than 5000 miles on the clock for £12k....both had pleasure in telling him he was a mug.

Back on topic, don't be put off by the auto box. I used to be an auto hater but since buying mine I can't fault it. Works very well with this engine.
