Title: Thoughts and opinions please
Post by: billy2shots on 20 July 2010, 10:49
Dont like doing this as i know quite a few people are on the look out for these but....

Does anyone know this car?

What are peoples opinions, i am thinking of going to look at her but she is a few hours away so it would be grate if anyone knows the history of the car. Personaly think its a good spec but a touch pricey. Looks like an after market Parrot kit. I have suspitions of retro fit sat nav aswell. Whats the easiest way to check if its been retrofitted?
All opinions very much welcomed.

Does seem a bit pricey.

What makes you think its been retro fitted? Even if it has been, theres no reason for it be a problem as long as it works all ok.

Seems a nice spec and a nice motor but I wouldnt be paying that much for it.

Thats the thing, i have been moaning a fait bit recently because most Ed30's seem to be over priced. Its almost as if everone has stuck an extra £1k on the value...

Maybe a couple hundred over but it's a very high spec car. The RNS is not retrofitted, note the shark fin aerial and bee sting aerial combo on the roof (found on later models instead of just the shark fin).
