Fer cryin' out loud, £13.5k?? That's absurd!

Do we feel this is a seasonal adjustment or will they stay there? Can see me in one of them in a few months if they stay like that.

Money is in the bank right now but apparently some group called the 'Inland Revenue' or whatever want it

Looks nice, only thing that might put people off is the red roof. Looks ok in the pics.

My DB7 had a red roof, I liked it although Sarah didn't. And 99.9% of the time it'd be down anyway!

Seriously considering this, right next to Emblem for a PPI as well...

Tell me about it, I have been well and truly done!

Shame it's not an easy drive compared to a 911 C4. Can't go wrong in that or I could trade it, she'd be terrified of this.

 

[BennyD]

Go for it Lewis, you know you want to. Porsche or Maserati? Talk about a no-brainer.

Isn't the scuttle shake bad on the early spyders?

 

[DaveT]

That one has been up for a good while.

Was it not discussed here before?

 

[Parisien]

......some pertinent info raising its head............how long Dave?

Yep, another thread aboout it about a month ago.......I though someone on the other side was looking at it....Close to Dan I believe.....

I like the red roof it's just the steering wheel bubbling puts me off....Nt sure how easy that is to put right....Cheap though.

 

[Parisien]

I don't think its cheap as such.........it has 66K under its belt........just better value than some.....

Depends on what you mean by bad. Pretty sure scuttle shake never killed anyone, only reveals itself on harsh roads and any stiffly sprung car feels poor there anyway. Is it going to be like an old 4 seat SAAB 900 turbo..? No, probably not. Like a 430 Spyder, again, probably not Maybe somewhere in between.

It's a nice continental cruiser with a fabulous engine, great looks and amazing sounds. And fast enough for me, it's never going on track.

The Porsche stays, it's a the only car she'll drive and I have to keep some interest for her! If it's there in 3 months, I'll have it. Money going elsewhere until then, but what a bargain...

66k is nothing, my 4200 had 70-something when I sold it.

I'd say a 4200 Spyder for 3200 money is a pretty great deal. However, far less miles and better colours can be bought for just a few thousand more so you're right there Frank. There's a lovely blue 04 spec car (glass rear screen, beefed up chassis) for 17k before haggling...

 

[Parisien]

Depends on the wad of invoices, nothing to do on her......fault free.......for some 66K a bit much......ie they regard them as fine weather and high day cars.......for others 100k aint a problem.

Definitely a good price if it all stacks up

[hodroyd]

Looks pretty good for the money, mileage is not that high for a V8, or the year. Somebody buy it!!

 

[gamma_ray]

I think you'll find it's been on their forecourt since Oct 2010, priced in excess of £17k for part of that time. I say 'forecourt' in the loosest sense of the word in that the spyder has now migrated to their back yard, lurking rather sadly under a tarpaulin. It hasn't been converted into somewhere to house the chickens just yet, but you get my drift...

 

[Easyplan66]

I would agree that not a particularly nice colour and once the miles get over 65k the price will drop quicker, still a great car for the money(if you are a girl) hehehe
