Go for the GT pack, they don't cost much more now, and the added extras are worth it.

£4-5k, good luck with that.

Welcome

Congrats and enjoy.

Welcome, and good luck with the search.

How far did you have to go to buy yours?

I bought mine from Clapham in London, which was a nice 250+miles drive home.

Gave me enough time to learn the car, and enjoy the first few hours of ownership, I'm sure any Zed owner will agree

Welcome.

Welcome.

Welcome. I'm in Kingswood most weekends, will have to keep an eye out for you.

Welcome.

Price lowered to £7,795. Also listed on PH and eBay today.

Old plates are back on the car now, and it's ready to be sold.

I've just ticked over 50k miles too.

Welcome.

I'm on CS too.

Welcome. Mine should be within your budget

MPG, mine is around 25/26 average, 20 for town. Lower tax band (£240) if it's an 06 or older (I think).

Service costs, my last one was £350 iirc, including Spark Plugs. That was a P2, next is a P1 (so cheaper).

Just make sure it has a full service history, this engines are pretty bulletproof. And go for a GT, they have the goodies.

Just googled it....my surely not comment was a bit pointless.

 

£105 to fill up...ouch!

 

How many miles did you all get to your last full tank?

I've never run out, but I typically put £85 in to fill it, which gets me about 330 miles.

My OBC is showing an average MPG since August last year, of 26.8 mpg.

Welcome.

Welcome to the forum.

Welcome.

Welcome. Go for a GT.

Not DoogyRev's. It's a stock 04 Silver GT, actually bought it from a local sports car specialist. 68k on the clock, FNSH, full MOT, tax and recent service. Comes with a 12m full warranty from the garage itself (I've checked the fine print). I've persuaded them to refurb the alloys and touch up any blemishes in the paint work included within the negotiated price of £6,800. I think (hope) I've done alright, but I'm sure you lot will tell me otherwise and there's only a £100 retainer on it so can walk away if needs be.

Sounds like a great deal, especially from a dealer.

Link?

Welcome

I've filled for the plates to be removed, so should hear back from the DVLA within the next couple of weeks.

Welcome.

Welcome.

Thanks again guys,

 

what is the MPG like on them, in the scoob £80 does me about 300 miles, if going steady or about 220 with spirited driving lol. also does the Z need v power, mpg is not a concern otherwise I would be looking at vw blue motion, just wondered if there are comparable.

You should see a few extra miles on £80. 25/27 mpg average.
