Desposit Paid, Too Late Now!

[ClarCE]

First post, so hi everyone!

 

Well after fighting with every finance company known to man over the last week, I've finally nearly got there. So today I went to the dealer and took it for a test drive and my GOD was I impressed. I've been umming and r'ing for ages about whether to get one. I wanted one the day they were released but they were just way out of the price range then...

 

I've read about niggles / problems on here so I was listening and looking - didn't hear the knocking from the rear, or any dodgy creaking. Gear changes were swift (although dodgy at first while I adjusted). However forgot to test the stereo out but did test the electric windows so I could hear the engine roaring at me

 

Heres a link, what do you think? http://i164.photobucket.com/albums/u24/ClarCE/350.jpg

 

Its an 04/04 GT with the Rays and all that - although no satnav. 23000 miles, and its got three stamps in the service book. 2 owners from new. £13990.

 

Hopefully you don't think I should walk away as I just gave the dealer a considerable amount of cash!

 

Cheers,

 

Chris

[ClarCE]

Cheers guys, the really annoying thing is that next week I'm up north with work until Wednesday, back South on Thurs then going to Spain for a week on Friday - so at this rate not until the 30th!! I'm going to be going out of my mind wanting to get home again and actually pick it up

That's a really decent price for that year and mileage and also being a GT pack with FSH.

 

I'd go for it!

I don't know of any members in Swindon, but there are a few around the Bath/ Bristol area.
