Until the time you go to high and annoy the customer :rofl:
Yes it’s a fine line 😄
Thats it is and I walk it constantly but been ok mostly, had the odd one tell me to never darken their door again :D
I ask client if they have a target price in mind, for me to work on. They often give me several £100's over what i already
have in mind :wink: I get back to them in 10 mins and do the deal :rofl:

For me, I would take the red one, not a fan of the pop out stereo covering half the AC controls, plus the lower miles, guess it depends if you can live with red and the white interior.

Also if you were looking at the blue one why not take this black one with similar mileage but a newer car with electric seats but at the same price as the red one - https://www.autotrader.co.uk/car-detail ... 5xf&page=1

Black one is about on the money, the other two overpriced. Blue one has marmite interior and red one stereo confirms previous thoughts, too low and blocks controls as said :thumbsup:

    Its the blue one with the pop up stereo and the red with marmite interior I think, blue and tan is a popular colour, price wise yes I agree the black one is the best option :thumbsup:

    Yip, got the stereo mixed up but sticking with the interior comment. Have to agree with mr.tourette, that the Ivory interior every time over the tan, but black one out of the 3 definitely :thumbsup:

      I have no issue with white, just not in a white or red car - blue and tan is a classic to me :D

      Yes black one is the better deal :thumbsup:

        I’m more interested in the 15 second boost, and want to know why 35iS drivers don’t drive using that all the time :rofl:
