Nope!  The Fiat garage is providing 20K for a PX, but i went somewhere else where i thought i might get a better offer only to be offered 17k!!! 

Ok, I'm with you now  :rolleyes: £3k difference, that's a fair lump of folding.

it left me a little confused!  The fiat dealer offers a realistic PX IMO and decent discount on the Grande Punter!  It seems to be a no brainer!!!   :smiley:

i'll miss the Golf though, it's so good to throw down the back roads.... :sad:

I've been phoning a few dealers with used R32's for sale, and the PX price they offer me against what their asking for simular spec cars to mine, is in the region of £5.5-6k difference, Pi## and takers springs to mind.  :angry:

Good luck Matt - the 996 C4s is a beauty.

No 987 Box here anymore, cracking deal from OPC last summer to take it at only a 2.5k p.a. loss.

I hear the new Punto is a decent motor - should be hassle free and it will make the C4S all the more special.

I am wondering though, will you make a nice new picture of your Punto wheel beside the porker wheel for your sign off?

I thought I was going to have to, but one dealer offered me £19k PX, so he got the order.
