Must be a reason...maybe he thinks that the yellow isn't as desirable It is true for most cars...if both were 20v[6], the grey would probably get more interest?

Yeah definitely.

But James Twist are a Coupe specialist, so surely they'd know it was a rare one?

I'm just jesting (hint : look what model and colour car I have).

The only reason I can think of is the kudos of the later plate.

Will someone just buy that bloody car and stop me from doing it!

It's only the 140 mile drive that's (sensibly) stopping me at the moment

Pah, just up the road for you Are you actually looking for another coupe?

Yes. I have a post in the wanted section for a Plus. Problem is I'm also buying a house at the moment....So I really should be waiting till that has all gone through.

Someone needs to buy this car so we can all dribble over the pictures!

Decision made...

Won't be me this time

Go for it inkblack

If it was round the corner from me I wouldn't be able to stop myself from buying.

i just went for it now and some one has taken it for a test drive,phone back in 30 min,

All in all Vicks, I think you made the right decision

I dont! Its a yellow plus, you wont get another chance Vicks

Hell even I am thinking of going up tomorrow morning I don't even need a fourth car!

If it was at Wimbledon Carriage company, I would have bought it by now...but it's not. All in all, I have made the sensible choice - my reasons for wanting it were totally daft...sense will prevail and my next car will be...

...dull compared to that Plus

Anyway I hope someone on here gets it before its snapped up by some scroat who sticks a horrible halfords spoiler on the boot.

If this hasn't already sold, here's some more information.

Full Dealer Service History.

Belts haven't been done yet but will be at screen price.

No stereo but a Panasonic multichanger is available at extra cost.

Drivers door resprayed due to car park dings.

One lady owner.

I live literally round the corner from this so imagine what I'm going through knowing this is for sale and I can't afford it (unless I get a straight swap )

Right, ive just spoken to someone about them viewing my coop, they went and saw this "special" car the other day and apparently its far from being all that!

One side has pretty much been resprayed, but with a slightly off match yellow, to the point where theres orangey areas. The drivers door is covered in car park dints, not your average amount but more. The engine bay is in deed mint, but to be fair cant most be with some elbow greese etc. The owner wouldnt budge the price even when these issues were raised, with the only compromise being that he would sort cambelt prior to sale.

i went down and took it for a test drive trying to sort out a sensible deal (px on my green 20vt) plus cash, it is nice but it has had paint shame as i was looking for a perfect example at that price.

It's really not a bad price!! It's only had paint as it had carpark dings - they touch up all their cars as needed according to the guy I spoke to

like i say, the guy who saw it said its very nice, but for the money its a little overpriced, the paint touch ups ar far from decent you see, i'd want something in very good nick for 6k, as its not an LE

Mr C

Your expecting to find a coupe thats never had paint?

so you were the one custard at 2.30 haveing a test drive,the girl said she would phone back in 30min if it had not gone,but no one phoned i did try a few times but always bizzy,but sort of glad now as it did look mint in the pics,but 6k is still not bad,but ive come back down to earth now,so no plus for me yet?

not at all at 7yrs to be expected .but it should be a little harder to spot! not great quality as stated above

Yeh there quality doesn't surprise me, its obvious from the pics its all odd.

Ive seen and posted here about there mechanical ability too

Lucky escape then

Seem to recall the press photos when the LE was launched with the squished skirts on one side
