Charlie_W Posted June 23, 2007 Share Posted June 23, 2007 Long time reader, first time poster, so thought it was about time I made the effort to introduce myself. I've picked up loads of tips and knowledge here, so wanted to thank all of you I've been looking at buying a Z for over a year now and think I'm about ready to take the plunge I've seen a chilli red, GT, 05 plate with 29k on the clock at the local stealer for £20k. Took it out for a spin this afternoon and still can't wipe the grin off my face An absolutely awesome car to drive, can't believe I haven't done anything about it sooner! I'd appreciate any thoughts you guys have. Is £20k for an 05 plate, GT pack with 29k on the clock a good deal? I thought it would be priced about £1-2k higher than that so was wondering if there's something they're not telling me? Looked out for all the usuals (real tyres / suspension etc.) but have to admit I'm a bit of a noob so I could have missed something. Thanks for any tips you guys can give me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lomoto Posted June 23, 2007 Share Posted June 23, 2007 A bit expensive I think for that mileage Welcome by the way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trev-the-Rev Posted June 23, 2007 Share Posted June 23, 2007 to the forum. I agree with Tim (Lomoto) it is a tad too expensive for that mileage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charlie_W Posted June 24, 2007 Author Share Posted June 24, 2007 Thanks for the feedback and the welcome guys. Think I may give this one a miss and wait some more I've waited nearly a year and half, I can wait some more Realistically, what do you reckon I can get for around £20 - £22k? I'd ideally like under 20k mileage but there seems to be such a wide range on the market it's hard to tell what is good value for money.

Ebized Posted June 24, 2007 Share Posted June 24, 2007 lomoto said "can be 2005 with 54 plate" and that's what I said - as the car Charlie was looking at was a 2005 on an 05 plate - which does make a difference to the price, especially for a relatively young car. But I agree with the consensus that the dealer's price is high - 'im down on that if the car really appeals to you Charlie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
