Re: Ok gang thoughts on this one
seems a bit expensive for a private sale, although is nice and low mileage

Just up the road from me. Thanks, it might go and buy it.
Why is it that people who can't take advice always insist on giving it?

Only kidding. I drove a friends M recently. Seemed really old fashioned to me. Are you sure that you want to change?

Look outside, if its dry and sunny get your car out and go for a drive.
You have had your car for months and only clocked up 300 miles, get out in it and enjoy it.

Re: Ok gang thoughts on this one
Sorry to hear your medication is wrong. Have you thought about Radio Iodine? I had two doses but regret the second.jamesbond wrote:No not 100% as usual relying on this forum to convince me (sorry all)Zed Five wrote:Only kidding. I drove a friends M recently.

I look at my 35is and wonder what is not to like, have a small cash flow problem at the mo and feel unwell but I think my medication is wrong. I could get a M and free up £10k .. but if there was a problem with the M purchase that money could soon go.
Ronk has already emailed me so will take his advice tonight .. sorry to bang on about this fellow forum members, just need your help that's all
Back on topic, how much is your 35is worth?

Re: Ok gang thoughts on this one
If that's a true reflection of pricing at the moment then it puts my 43k 06 FSH example in at a solid 15k as a private sale ,which seems plain silly IMHO. Mind you I guess it's the summer so prices for roadsters are a bit daft . Problem is if you sell time of year you're buying back into an overinflated market unless you can wait until Nov time .

Re: Ok gang thoughts on this one
I think the silver M roady is at the top of its tree & unlikely to go any further in the next few years , possibly even a small drop ? Depends on mileage you add & of course the price you pay .
That said if you sit on your current car for 2 years then even with mega low miles at 3 yr old it would have dropped significantly from the £31k offered
Very few winners in the car world so drive what makes you happy & it makes the rest of it more tolerable

I'm not an endocrinologist but from what I recall I think you have to closely monitor T3 as well as free T4 Esepcially as TSH often lags behind in the feedback mechanism .

Re: Ok gang thoughts on this one
So if WBAC are offering 31k then whats the car really worth ?
You cant sell at rock bottom trade then buy at sky high retail..... Thats just throwing money away..
The silver roady is way to expensive,its worth £15k maximum imho.... And thats summer pricing and nice mileage...
Although i do like silver,its not the best seller. The people selling it are probably on a sale or return deal... I doubt it will fly out at that money,i would wait a month and see if the actual owner tries to sell..
Or wait until October and but it a LOT cheaper.........
