Farewell my Bonnie.
« on: 18 July 2011, 23:17 »
Well guys have decided to sell Bonnie, she is now 2 years old and has done 11,300 miles.  As you can see from my sig the car has a pretty decent spec and I would hope to get around £20,000 for her.

If anyone is interested feel free to PM me, I do not always respond very quickly as I tend to work unsociable hours but promise I will return all PMs as soon as poss.

I live in North Yorkshire and the car will be available to view there (I will only divulge my address to interested parties)

Thanks all

So you've decided to leave this exclusive testosterone fuelled club  :cry:

What car are you looking at to replace Bonnie?  Remember it has to be black ;)

Don't laugh but I have plans to replace Bonnie with a Fiesta Sport which is due out in a couple of months, in Panther Black with black 17" alloys.  Will be cheaper to tax, insure and run and whilst I've loved my GTI I don't use it enough to warrant the costs involved.

I know many of you don't rate Ford cars but many people do and IMO the new Fiesta is quite an attractive beast.

 :shocked:   :shocked:   :shocked:  And once for luck:  :shocked:

Pray, tell us more about this little Fiesta that features in your ''plans''.

Did I see mention of black alloys? Like the ones I had which you tore into?  :grin:

Good luck, I can see where you're coming from.
You get 3000 different types of plastic texture throughout the inerior but it's a fantastic car to drive, good residuals and cheap to run.








And black wheels like I had which you slated!!!  :laugh:

 :shocked: :shocked: :shocked: :shocked: :shocked: a few more from me!

I have to say I am shocked at your decision also... a  Golf to a Fiesta?? I do speak to alot of people in the motor trade and any one of them will tell you that is a step backwards.... but.... women hey!! who can tell em anything!!  :grin:


What concerns me more is that you are one of these people that buys a brand new car and then trades it/sells it on after the first 10k taking the biggest hit!?!?  :huh: :huh:

Good luck with the new ride...as you say not a bad looking car :cool:

Still a bit shocked on your decision but the Fiesta looks nice if it's the same as Martin's posted.

Might you be trading it in if you don't get a private sale on here?

If you do, let me know if you'd be interested in moving your rear lens' and camera - I'd be interested price dependent

Thanks

The breeze of insanity has blown through your hair! :shocked: :shocked: It may well be cheap to run but it'll be worth about 20p in two years time cos they're everywhere! :sick: Oh well, good luck and don't be a stranger. :wink:

Is this a joke Gizzy :huh:



You'll regret it. You'll save a few quid for shoes but will still regret it.
Each to their own and all that, still a big mistake though.
