Car help/advice really

[Payney]

Not sure if i'm in the right section, sorry if it's not :y:

I got about £3000 could spend bit more than that...on a Saxo VTS...Mk2

I'd like an 02 or 03 plate or something like that... Prefered in black or silver, but not fussy on colours really...

For £3000 i'd like fairly low milage, and maybe some external modifications maybe...Lol

So the question is, do you know anywhere selling some good, tidy Saxos...?

Thanks,

Ant

[Payney]

Tried all them...

Getting most luck with Pistonheads so far... Some are somewhat near what i'm looking for but may have to spend more...

[Payney]

2001 Zetec s ftw ;)

hmmm nah i'll stick to my one and true love, a VTS :A:

Got my eye on this aswell...

[Tupps]

Smart that vts mate, i spied it on pistion heads before

[Payney]

Haha, engine bay will need a clean for sure. :P

[vipergfx]

always minters popping up on here, wish i'd held out, i went round the uk for my vts

[Mikey]

dont get saxo they fall to bits

[Payney]

If it does, i'll fix it. :P

I love Saxos...

[Mikey]

If it does, i'll fix it. :P

I love Saxos...

haha...cool. get that black vts mate! looks clean :A:

[Payney]

I may do....Is it good for that price or?

[vipergfx]

Yeah its a good price. Depends what you want. You could get a modded one with more miles on and it will save you in the long run. If you want to keep it standard though, thats cool

[Mikey]

seems about right mate that price...offer 3grand...i would

[Payney]

Yeah its a good price. Depends what you want. You could get a modded one with more miles on and it will save you in the long run. If you want to keep it standard though, thats cool

I plan to mod.

But i thought if i ever re-sell and i do loads of miles.... Could force people not to buy in the future. :)


Looks like i may have found a winner am going to e-mail him now. ;)

[vipergfx]

If you plan to mod best off buying a one with the parts on it imo.

but fair play, the one above looks good (y)

[Payney]

Sometimes is, but i'd rather mod it myself, i learn more....May sound silly... But it's true.

I've e-mailed him and offered 3k.

[Payney]

Lowest he'd go is £3200...What you guys think i should do?

Maybe i could try a 2000 reg or something like that with low mileage..

[davew]

3100 and you'll pick it up at the weekend

[Payney]

http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/144285.htm

This guy asked for 2500 for this.... theres a few i like need to decide with one.... Need to get the money from my dad before i can buy for sure though....

[Luke]

I'd go for the black one mate.

34,000 miles on a 02 mate is LOW mileage and it's totally standard, so you could modify it how you want it.

If he won't take any lower, offer him £3,150 and I'm sure he will accept.

[Payney]

He sent me some more pictures....

Theres a crack on the front bumber, bottom right fog light..near there, also what seems to be the front window is scratched to fuck some how...

Want pics?

[Luke]

Put them up on here mate so I can have a look.

Also, does this wing look damaged to you?

What you think i should do?

[Luke]

Around the aerial looks like it would come off with some T-Cut or something like that. The foglight though looks like it could be a repair job, so I would knock him down to £3,000 for that.

Not sure about the wing, could be just reflection.

[Payney]

I tried, he said £3.2k lowest.... I've PMed that Dave guy whos got a black one...21k miles so he says but no reply...

Know any other good VTS's going anywhere? Prefered in black or silver... and 02 or 03 plate

[Mikey]

front bumper looks like it would need a respray job...pull him on that and you should get it for 3k easy

[Mikey]

for 3.2k a saxo should be immaculate!!!

[Payney]

Not so much the bumper...is the scratches near the arial that bother me most...and weather its a dent on the wing or not... lol

[Payney]

for 3.2k a saxo should be immaculate!!!

Thats what i said.

[Payney]

http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/154424.htm

Just emailed the guy asking whats the bottom he'd ask for it..

[Luke]

Looks in good condition.

[Payney]

Just been offered an 03 plate, silver, 50k miles... £3500

[Luke]

I'd wait for the reply back on the blue one.

I wouldn't pay £3,500 for a VTS with 50k on.

[Payney]

Not fond on blue to be honest, how much do resprays cost?

Said no to the 03 VTS

[Luke]

Not many blue ones about though.

You are very fussy ;)

[Payney]

Well the vts i just sold was blue, but that was an mk1...i found it hard to modify and keeping it look good...
