My other half doesn't drive huge distances so I was thinking that as she's always wanted one it might be a good idea to fulfil that dream.

Any way, I've come across a cheap mk1 with high motorway miles but fsh (18 stamps) new roof, roof motor etc, cam-belt + waterpump.

Would it be worth taking the gamble given that it's not huge sums of money?

Sounds like a good car .... well maintained, motorways miles (always better than round-town miles, I believe), lots of new parts.

Go for it !!!!

 

That's my thought too so will hopefully go and see it on Saturday ;)

Let us know how you get on and pop up some piccies of it if you can 

Will do, must get some pics of my A8 up at some stage too ;)

Would like to see that...thanks

Well, the TT isn't pristine but all the paperwork was present with 18 stamps in the book, a new hood and she drove perfectly.

Left a deposit on the basis that they get a new MOT :)

MOT'ed for 12 months and being delivered on Saturday as an early birthday present for my fiancee. 

Can't really complain at £1500 but she is definitely going to inflict some damage on me 

Looks fantastic...all you need now is some sunshine  :-)

Enjoy !

I would too,i have a red one with red leather for sale but it has 150000 miles on,but serviced regularly, i think the service history is the most important 

150000 miles...that's good mileage but as long as it has been maintained correctly it's not really an issue...good luck with the sale Wendy.

 

@Bigfub  how you getting on with the TT ?

it s the same as mine but your one looks a lot better . very nice

@wendy  did you sell your TT yet?
