I didn't buy it but did have some communication with Alex. I hope someone off here bought it in the end as it sounded like a well sorted car.

Shouldn't have worked yesterday and gone down there instead. I did invoice quite a few £k though so not sure what is better....losing out on the Maser or having some money!

Sneaky dealer maybe?

Not me, I nearly bought it but opted out a few days ago as it's now over the 60k miles and needed at least £500 of cosmetic prep, probably considerably more to pass an inspection at the mileage point it's at. I'd have to then sell it at £16-17k to make a small profit which is top money for a 2004 car in what everyone's seems to think is a poor colour combo. I actually think it's a lovely combo but I have to buy what customers want. Someone's got a great deal though as a private buyer doesn't need to sort everything an inspection might bring up.

I'm just hoping some chavvy lowlife hasn't bought it. When good cars drop to that price it invites all sorts of undesirables into the fold. We'll have to see where it pops up. ;)

I wasn't directing that comment at you Dicky! Just for the record ;)

My worst fears realised! Great buy Martyn, now sell it before you drag the value of all our cars down! ;)

I thought he didn't like the colour! Ahahah well done Matt's brother, once the alloys and scuff has been sorted it will be a minter.

You have to realise there's not much going on up there. He has the attention span of a dung beetle and that's because his main neurological centre is powered by a hamster on a wheel that is prone to falling off every now and again. That must be his female side coming out again! ;)
