Pondering selling my Ed40
« on: 07 April 2019, 19:12 »
I have posted in the classifieds about my clubsport ed 40 3 door manual with buckets if anyone is interested.

It is the perfect drivers spec and I am pondering selling due to not using it that much so just seeing what interest out there given it still has plenty warranty left.

I would love to (and could) keep it long term it was bought as a keeper after searching high and low for this exact spec, but I might be moving house next year with limited garage space so selling rather than putting it in storage is an option. 

Anyway let me know if you are interested I can send pics.  If you search under the Clubsport Pics thread you will see some of my original pictures.

Thought I would potentially offer it to the forum first as I don't really want to sell it to the trade, its too good for someone to make a margin on it !

Cheers guys

You're not wrong, sounds spot on for me! My OH would probably kill me though :embarrassed:

Update, I mentioned it and her answer was rather ambiguous, "no". Not quite sure where she really stands on this... :rolleyes:

Why don't you buy a house with more garaging?
Red Mk6 gone replaced with a white Mk7 which has gone too. Green Mk2 here to stay.

I've consistently found that no always means yes. So Watts you should just get this bought. Prices are rock solid so that should keep his other half happy!  :grin:

If it was my perfect colour and spec, I'd be all over it for £25000.
Not enough doors and too red for me. Still gorgeous though :drool:

So for the sake of clarity I've revisited this with my OH and a short exchange appears to have resolved the ambiguity. Apparently no means no. I made an appeal against this decision and a compromise of "I'll have a look at it later" was offered however I suspect that was a coded way of saying 'it's still no but if this shut's you up for a bit' :rolleyes:

Shame, it does sound spot on spec wise for me :kiss: :tongue:
