jonathan73 Posted January 9, 2008 Posted January 9, 2008 Guys Although I'm in no hurry, I'm thinking of selling my beloved GT4 :sad: As regular members will know I am extremely anal about cleaning it and have Craig Mudd (muddydetail.co.uk) detail it every 8 weeks. His first visit in April 07 being to completely rid it of swirls and quite simply make it stunning. (I have before / after pics if you wish to see them).... Here's one where you can see the difference! Here's a general pic of the black beauty.... Craig has kept up the regular visits and loving care while I've spent my time washing it (3 bucket method plus other anal techniques ) and caring for it too. I have washed it 5 times since Christmas Eve and waxed it too! Always using Blackfire Wet Diamond products. It's #154 of 176 produced. And has delicate mods: 1. SatNav 2. Reverse Parking Sensors 3. Bluetooth Adaptor included 4. Mesh Grill 5. Anthracite GT4 wheels 6. Stubby! 7. 265/40/18 rears (new in Nov 07) I have recently had the common warranty work done to sort out the clicking axles, skipping CD and bits of corrosion on the wheels. It's done 28,500 (10k in the last 13 months I've owned it). Though I'm obviously marketing to the converted, is anyone interested? Or, most likely, know of anyone who may be? Any ideas of what price I should be thinking of? Any offers? Quote
Digsy Posted January 9, 2008 Posted January 9, 2008 Nooooo!!! Why are you selling??? Seriously though, this is a tip top Zed and should be snapped up (if you give us a price ). Good luck with the sale. Quote
Beavis Posted January 9, 2008 Posted January 9, 2008 Sorry to hear that you are selling Jonathan but why,? what do you have planned? Quote
AndySpak Posted January 9, 2008 Posted January 9, 2008 Didn't an almost identical car get sold last week on ebay for about £18,450? I don't think that had SatNav but it did only have 14,000 miles so I'd expect you'd get somewhere in the same region (£18-19K) Quote
lomoto Posted January 9, 2008 Posted January 9, 2008 Hope you have a pain free sale Jonathan...whoever buys it will get a belting car.. Quote
H5 Posted January 10, 2008 Posted January 10, 2008 Looks like a great example, good luck with it. Quote
jonathan73 Posted January 10, 2008 Author Posted January 10, 2008 Thanks for the nice words lads. I don't have anything planned, I just wonder if I fancy a change. Although I do love the fact that this car doesn't just turn heads - it creates whiplash Not many have anything like the same effect Quote
lomoto Posted January 10, 2008 Posted January 10, 2008 Thanks for the nice words lads. I don't have anything planned, I just wonder if I fancy a change. I was thinking the same thing about a year ago .. I just decided to keep the Zed and buy something else as well Quote

martinmac Posted January 12, 2008 Posted January 12, 2008 Not that it needs any comments, its absolutely mint and very shiny Quote
Sarnie Posted January 12, 2008 Posted January 12, 2008 Not that it needs any comments, its absolutely mint and very shiny I know The only teeny weeny thing i'm not keen on, and don't take offence Jonathon, is the new colour of the rims Quote

Or even the Volks Quote

jonathan73 Posted January 13, 2008 Author Posted January 13, 2008 Yeah, I know what you mean about the rims.... The new colour has taken some getting used to. But now, having had them 3 weeks I kinda like the difference they give. Easpecially with the mesh grill, together they make it look meaner And if I keep it, my bodywork guy is only £25 per wheel to repaint them if so desired. I doubt I'll be keeping it though - Saturday a guy came from Birmingham and is sending the RAC to do a recce on Wednesday. He's already stated his desire to make an offer, to which I responded that I'd consider it as long as it wasn't stupid. There's also a dealer in Bristol who's offered £19k so I'm becoming used to the idea of handing it over to someone else. I didn't think you'd be interested Liam, but if you are you know it's been looked after and you can pm me...... Cheers guys. Quote

I'm toying with the idea of buying a cheapo import for about £11k and modding it to high hell Quote
thirdearl Posted January 13, 2008 Posted January 13, 2008 how about a cheapo cat d and modding that to high hell? Quote
Sarnie Posted January 13, 2008 Posted January 13, 2008 how about a cheapo cat d and modding that to high hell? maybe, but I don't think grey is my colour Quote
H5 Posted January 13, 2008 Posted January 13, 2008 how about a cheapo cat d and modding that to high hell? maybe, but I don't think grey is my colour How can you mod to high hell without a custom respray....?? Quote
