First one looks a bargin tbh.

first one seems a better deal. vtr is only 2 insurance groups higher though and the same sort of money to buy...

insurance on the furio is 1800 and for a vtr is 3200 ! think it will be the furio ! , still trying to justify one other the other and am struggling !

that is true, the common saxo's are vtr's and 1.1's. Thats the case in this area anyway, vtr's and 1.1's are everywhere! very few furio's and vts's

still need the advise as i would have probably gone for the second car because im thinking what am i getting for my extra £200 with the other one = 10k less miles and 1 owner , but thats sort of canceled out by the great condition of the second one and the fact its got a fair bit of m.o.t left. any more help is much appreciated.

First one if you can get some price knocked off.

31st October 2008, 11:19
well iv already haggled a bit to get to 1800 so doubt thy would go lower and havnt with the second so they would probably sell for £1600 , iv made a not of the differences below so its easier to decide although im still struggling to see which is the better car and need help to decide so i can pick it up shortly.
1 months m.o.t - 5 months m.o.t
50k miles - 60 k miles
Lost remote - Snapped aeriel
Scrape on bumper - mark on bonnet
1 owner - 3 Owners
£1800 - £1695 ono

bump , leaning towards cheaper one because it will not need any money spent on it for a while wheras other will need mot shortly and the remote sorted ........ agree ? which would you buy if it were you ?

ok , cant see why its "nicer" as its same car to look at and if anything the one with pics on here ( second car ) LOOKS nice and shiny and am told its polished every week, but the thing that made me think that one over the other is that its had one owner and it was his wife so hasnt been thrashed about whereas the other has had 3 owners so could have been espesially with more miles , so ...they where asking for 1900 , got them down to 1800 , think i should try to get them down to 1700 because of remote ? and whats better , over phone or in person once im there ? ( 3 hour drive )

Get the 1st, new remote max 80 quid mot 40 cant be too much wrong with it as its and 02 and only 1 owner, you could sort out the condition of paint over time.
Worth the extra money for the 1 owner and less miles
Also go there with the 1800 and whilst your there sat knock off 60 for remote and 60 for mot, i very much doubt they will turn you down
