WELL WHAT CAN I SAY? i rung the guy up with the t reg 43k gs sport to arrange another viewing with the intention of pushing up my offer and he said it sold for 9500 i feel a complete idiot. it definately sold i even got the mrs to call him and he told her the same thing. i am gutted. I SHALL NOT REPEAT THIS MISTAKE i will close the deal there and then next time

HI AGAIN MONSTER i didnt test drive the tt the guy took me for a spin in it and he floored it a few times it did seem fast but not as fast as i expected ( maybe turbos were blown ) i did not rate the tt highly and will not buy one. hi maneesh i checked out parkers price guide and it came back as independant dealer 9140 private good 8665. i know these gs sports are rare beautiful cars, i am a big fan and beleave that the black mk2 sport is the best gs produced so far, but beleave me when i tell you there is not much interest in them the gentleman selling the t reg 43k sport told me its been on sale many months and im the 2nd viewer he said no one else has called. when i was selling my black gs sport 42.5k in early 2004 i went by parkers guide placed tha car for sale at 17k then reduced it to 16 then to 15 in the end i had to let it go for peanuts to a dealer i never got any calls. if u look at 7 series bmw or s or e class mercedes of the same year and similar mialeage ive seen them on sale at between 5 to 6.5k i think the gs is overpriced at 9.5k or if it wasnt it would have sold long ago

hi monster thanks for quick responce if u go to the exchange and mart website you will see the vertex for sale it is black priced at approx 9.5k. im a bit weary at this moment because ad says it has don 15k miles but when i spoke to the chap selling it he said it has over 40k on clock then 1 minit he says sat nav works then he says hes not sure and could not even confirm whether all the buttons on interior are written in english or japanese im only going to view coz he lives few miles from me. if u go and check out the exchange and mart website let me know what you think thanks.

thanx again guys about 6 weeks ago i saw a 430 silver with tv video etc plus premium pack it was a yreg with 105k miles at 20 grande and like an idiot i thought the miles were to high and some other lucky sod purchased it.apparently it belonged to the director of the bbc anyway im off to buy the autotrader to see the 2 430s cheers

thanx guys i still find it disturbing that the aa dd not see the respray neither did the dealer i hope he does not come hunting me down when he finds out.all i have left now is a complete set of lucas brake pads and an 18 inch sport rim which is in very good nick if anyone wants them i willaccept anything reasonable to clear em out the garage.

i just sold my black mk2 gs sport x reg with 42k flsh history for 13.5k to a dealer can u guys tell me if it was a stupd move.the best offer i had private was 14k but he would not buy without log book as i sent it off for the pivate plate to be retained by dvla?????as u guys are aware tht from my old posts my car had a fullrespray by alan day after a hit n run but i was shocked to see that the aa and the garage that bought my car did not notice that the car hada full respray the aa charged 250 pounds andthey did not spot it.i think anyone paying for an inspection should be aware that u may be wasting ur money could please have ur views on both these points please thanking u in advance.

first thing were was the car advertised?and was it described any different then it actually was?what i would do in ur situation is if u feel u have a strong enough case i would proceed to the small claims court im not sure if the claim has to be a max of 5 or 25,000 pounds but in either case it will only cost u 120 pounds u dont need a solicitor all u need is some sort of proof that the car was wrongly described.i tell u 1 thing i heard a lot of companys would offer u some form of compensation even if they are not at fault because it will be costly for them and plus they may have their past dug out and if they are a dodgy lot they wont want that would they.
