What do you think? (pics)

[Sidesport]

Im in need of an everyday car, id still like a golf or audi, but im thinking about investing the money elsewhere and getting a cheaper car.

Went to look at this today....what do you think?

Its a 1999 T reg
VTR
70,000 miles
Tax and Mot
Lowered

It was very very tidy, the paintwork was amazing! Slight corrosion on the Rocker cover and the battery tray, but that was about it!

What do you think? I can have it for £2000 is that a good price?

[DarylVTR]

not a good price really. i paid £2400 for a V reg mk2 VTR with 48,000 on clock but it does look nice. So upto you i say you could get newer and lower mileage for £2000 though

[ets2k9]

I'd buy it it looks like a decent example.

[Robbo]

2000 is a bit much isnt it???? its done 70,000 miles after all

[Robbo]

but it does look very nice :)

[Colin]

I think thats a fair price tbh.

[ets2k9]

Is it advertised at 2k or is that what you got him down to?

[Yates]

its nice but over priced imo

you should buy mine, 3200 and on 32k onthe clock!

[YM03]

nice car but as stated bit pricy

[addictedtosax]

i dont think thats bad at all really, a wee bit ott but not by much.

[ets2k9]

you should buy mine, 3200 and on 32k onthe clock!

Stick it on Autotrader I bet it'll be gone by the end of the week.

[ne_jam]

if you look abotu you can probs pick up a lower millage i paid 2100 for a 97 with 48k and fsh

[Sidesport]

Its advertised at £2500! But i can have it for £2000 cash.

Hmmmmmmm

wtf where from!?

[Robb]

Everyone says that Saxo's are going for nothing these days but they're not, well not in my area anyway...

A average miled Mk2 VTS is in the 5/6k mark, and decent VTRs are 4ish, Furios are around 4ish too...

[Ry_B]

A bit pricey and has probably been ragged seeing as it's lowered.

[Connor_scotland]

looks real nice mate

[ne_jam]

signs of it having after market mods repalced to standard eg mirrors with no caps , a dark parcel shelf sure earlier ones were abit lighter

[Sidesport]

Well i have a test drive at 10am tomorrow, so will see how it goes!

I honestly dont think he will drop below 2k though.

All shelfs are different ;) Iv seen different 53 plate ones to mine and same when i had the furio

Mirror caps didnt come in that year.

Grill and lowering erm lol ;)

[ne_jam]

what model did caps come in on leckie ive seen most ones after R reg with them on i thought it was just the 1st mark 1's that didnt have then , ones without the fleck interior

[saxoash]

is overprised, i paid £2500 for mine 2000 x reg vtr with 36k on clock

[Dan]

Mirror caps were on them from S plates onwards I think as mine was a T reg and it had them on. It was only the really early 97-98's that had no mirror caps.

Would probably see if he'd take £1800 but £2k isnt bad.

[Luke]

I think £2k is a pretty good price tbh.

It looks immaculate, it's lowered and mileage is still about average. I mean if you have got it down £500 for cash, well thats a good deal.

[boz]

ive got my eye on a silver mk2 vts for 4999 52 plate :) for my missus when she passes her test lol

[ne_jam]

for her yer right lol as a spare toy for you wen yours is off the road lol

[Leo]

if it drives gud offer 1500

[Sidesport]

Back from the test drive!

And im abit disapointed, the accelerator was really really stiff and the engine managment light popped on while i was driving it. He said the light was due to them steam cleaning it recently? Could the accelerator pedal be fixed? Im talking REALLY stiff. was a pain to drive really!

For sale?

[Chris]

Chris - I just sold my X reg with 64K on the clock for £2500, so a T reg for £2000, does seem a little bit pricey mate!

Chris :)

[bunce1986]

Well the i am putting it through the MOT in the next few day's then after that it's for sale..exhaust is a bit rusty, but who ever buy's i will give a brand new 'savage backbox' 4" jap atyle..in the box still

Yea, im going to leave that one i think!

Found a 02 plate VTR with 37,000 miles totally standard for £2750. Asked him if he will take £2500, if he will its mine! :thumbup:

I was abit scarred driving the saxo! After having the polo that has amazing brakes the saxo seemed like i was going to crash into everything!

Was mucho fun though, he let me take it out on my own, handled really well being lowered, i did 4 laps of one round about, stuck very well! Was nippy too!

Chris

[S9_DAN]

That seems a good price i just sold my VTR, S reg with 97k on the clock for £1850 so to me that seems pretty good price !

Now that is a good price..... fingers crossed for you mate! Even at £2750 it's a good price!

What because everyone who lowers their saxo rags it? Where do people get these ideas from?!?

[m20pub]

Stick it on Autotrader I bet it'll be gone by the end of the week.

agreed

[Recovery]

£2000 for a VTR with 70,000 miles
You have to think about selling it after you have used it mate.. if you keep it for about 1 year maybe 2 your looking at putting about 20-25 thousand miles on the clock. I dont think anyone will want to buy a car that has 100,000 miles on the clock.. its nearly dead
