stevo1179 Posted December 30, 2010 Posted December 30, 2010 Yet another car....anyone in or around the area fancy a reccy? Quote
stevo1179 Posted December 31, 2010 Author Posted December 31, 2010 The car I've found is from a dealer. It is a UK GT 2003 (53), 33,000 miles, £8995. It has an almost complete service history, seems to be missing a service in 2008. The garage are happy for an AA inspection. If the inspection comes back clean, I'd go and buy the car. Given that the car is in Staffs and I live in Cornwall a viewing is problematic, any experience with AA inspections? Cheers, Steve Quote
martinmac Posted December 31, 2010 Posted December 31, 2010 You should be able to get someone to look at it mate, have you put the location into the search engine on here. Quote
stevo1179 Posted January 6, 2011 Author Posted January 6, 2011 Got the AA report, not great reading.....is the anyone I can PM it to for a second opinion? Quote
Tarmac@TarmacSportz Posted January 6, 2011 Posted January 6, 2011 Missed this thread originally. I'm pretty close (20 mins), I don't know much about AA inspections but if you want me to take a look at it and test drive it I can compare it to my 03 zed which touch wood has been faultless. I'm no mechanic but I can check the basics, condition etc Chris Quote
stevo1179 Posted January 6, 2011 Author Posted January 6, 2011 Now £266 worse off, I'm putting it down to experience and walking away. It has been in a smack, signs of repairs all down the off side, front discs need replacing, air bag light remains on, headlamp washers don't work and not been serviced since 2007, despite being assured that it had Full Service History. Pretty gutted to be honest. Quote
