Andy, interesting to see an 07 just come up for £42k! Then a comparable car has come up (same age, with 11k compared to 10k on the £42k car) at a main agent for £36k. Some think they're holding up, others dont :)

Actually, probably best to ignore me - the dearer car is an 08.

that is about what we guess, i think we both said about 450, so not that far off. How many Giallo ones, 5?

I think I had an idea of it being 375, but hadnt had it confirmed.

Dont know how many Giallo's, sorry. I suspect just one, but I really dont know.

Allright. Waiting to hear back on one which I think is now sold.

I've acutally been a bit distracted - just bought a runaround today - the missus refuses to drive the GS when I get it so we bought an early Cooper S. It takes the pressure off a bit and also makes cars easier to see going fwd as we've been carlsess awaiting the arrival of a GS.

Yeah, its a pretty basic spec but it seems to be a tidy one and as it'll almost certainly spend its life within 5 miles of home once I find a GS, I can live with the povvo spec.

Yeah, i can imagine. For what we need, its actually probably a bit too jippy, but cest la vie....have explained to the missus that "just because you've got the ooomph, you dont have to use it" :)

best way, the cooper is too slow for how much it weighs, and besides, the S probably doesn't cost that much more to run, especially if you said, it wont go much further than 5 miles from your house.

My wife had a Cooper way back when they came out....I though it was a great little car that handled like a go cart and proved you don't need massive BHP to have fun. Big smiles ever time I drove it...and back then she sold it for more than she paid for it.
