A high spec car but £12K I think is pushing it a little, it needs to be £11K or nearest offer. But you never know just pitch the seller an offer.......

for £12k you could buy something that's not a volkswagen family hatch. a ford focus and money to spare for the monthly shop perhaps?

Good point :)
However, I'm not keen on the Ford. Tried other Audis. Not overly bothered about the Vauxhalls either.
The one that has appealed the most is the Golf.

Shaprie on form as usual.

Id say you could knock him down a peg or two. Its got a cracking spec which is why he asking for 12k but being on an 05 plate with 44k gives you amo to knock him down.

It would have to better than diamonds and gold to have an MGF. Hell, they would have to come on a monthly supply from the dealer.

Yeah, but all that money you save you would have to spend on people putting the rubber back on your wheels after they keep falling off :rolleyes:
