  1. I may be on my own but I'd rather have your zed and £7k+ in the bank than that TT.............
  2. +1 £12k is a great px price imo. There is a white 313 GT on here being sold for £12k now and still no buyers, so a £12k px from a dealer is a great price.
  3. I've never px'd a car in my life. If I can get a better price selling it privately then I will. The only benefit to it I can see is the speed e.g you can roll in and out on the same day. If you can write a good ad, take some good pictures and price it properly, selling privately can be pretty easy. The only time I've been tempted to try and px was when I had just bought my UY GT4. The original owner paid £33k for it, I bought it from him 6 weeks later (he had lost his job) for £26k. I was interested in a Z4M and went to the dealership in Solihull, where they offered me £18k for a six week old car I vowed to never do that again and have since bought and sold all my cars privately, even made a grand on my E46 M3 in 12 months
  4. Jamie Moy. Ooops just seen the price
  5. I had no idea Threshers was still going! Where are you based? I went into Waitrose earlier and they dont sell it in the shop in Brackley Birmingham I enjoy a chilled bottle of Lauren Perrier Rose in the summer
  6. The Threshers right by me sell Krug for £125
  7. Not had mine yet but a quick google tells me that it is likely to be the same
  8. Looks like you cleaned all the paint off too
  9. You means it's arrived and your now trying to pretend to all of us that your a good person and would have cancelled it anyway
  10. You wouldn't believe how true that is! It's like having Angelina Jolie as your first girlfriend; nothing else afterwards can compare PS: I was 28
  11. Awesome. Wheels are vile but the car is mint
  12. I've already owned my realistic dream car. When it was released in 2003 I was determeined to have one someday. In March 2007 I told the Mrs I was going to buy one at the end of the year and she said OK. The OK was the green light for shopping to begin and in June 2007 I took delivery: Spent £4k on a decat Tubi set up and I've not heard anything like it. If I was spending the same money again, i'd buy another one, nothing else. The only thing that really grabs me above this sort of car would be a Zonda F
  13. Personally, I'd be buying the MY06 for the interior and exterior changes alone. I found the differences in engine to be virtually undetectable. I know that if I bought a MY03 car again, within weeks I'd be buying LED rear lights (circa £300) and new headlights if they came up (Guessing at £600 or so?) and then would be left with a dated interior. Once I'd spent the extra on the stuff above I might as well have paid the extra £200 in tax and got them as standard on the MY06 car.....

    Thats like saying you should have bought a CGT
  15. I think he was asking the difference between the 05 & 06 cars not the difference in tax OP, do a search on MY06 cars and MY03 cars.....

    £45k is proper poverty spec. The config link was posted up a few weeks ago and once you add half of the decent stuff it's easy to breach £60k....... I love it though and I've hated everyother Boxster before it. Yeah, I was playing with it and was referring to the standard car, not the S. I did kind of a drivers spec 2.7 with PASM, sport chrono, LSD, and a couple of other "necessary" option like parking sensors, stereo etc, and it did come to £45K. I would argue the standard car has enough power for most real world situations, and a tweaked S would make the 911 look rather overpriced. My mindset wouldn't allow me to buy a standard car knowing there was a better car available.
