I had a brief look at it in the dark and was speaking with Matthew about the car last week but unfortunately despite being very close in distance I couldn’t make the timings work, my understanding is the car was sold on Friday evening. But worth checking I guess

A very gushing article. He clearly loves the QP and who doesn’t. The example for 10k looks lovely in the pictures.

It's re-ignited my tentative search for a QPV..... me and the Mrs test drove a new Jag E-Pace as a replacement for our daily Alfa at the weekend and there's a possibility of me having something nice as a second car if things work out ok - she'll get to use the newfangled SUV while I get to waft about in another Italian.

(I know, I know, SUVs are the work of Beelzebub but with my dodgy back it wasn't as bad as I was expecting)

Is that for sale somewhere Mark ?

Dunno; just saw a pic.

But a Verde QPV (4.7, 2010, low miles, expensive) has just come up on AT. Thank goodness for the vile dash, carpets & wood, and the yellow callipers, or I would have to consider ANOTHER upgrade!

Check the clutch wear It has a new clutch
Check the front subframe It has a new front subframe.
It's probably done megamiles. 52k? Barely run in.
Get it serviced It's had a full service.
Get it inspected! yes do that...
That is a lot of car for under £13k. Buy it! If you don't someone will.
Buy Buy Buy!

Bye
without even looking ( I am still on page 1) that is a winner. The subframe is almost reason enough.
Oh and my Duoselect has been running on same clutch since 2014, and it was "worn out" then.

Someone apparently got there before me on Friday :(
you snooze , you lose my friend. Bad luck is now good experience. Ho and it was an Exec GT which is likely the highest specification QP offered.

Dealer selling car with all of the big ticket items done = buy unseen.
Wonder if it was repaired for a customer who then could not pay? Garage assumes title and sells for "cost" price.
