It hadn't crossed my mind, although I bought it from Sytner Leicester back when. However it's a 600 mile round trip for me, and that's not going to happen. Good shout though, cheers.

Is there not another Sytner closer - they may even do a rough valuation with some pics and a video walk around, they seem to be looking for 35iS right now

Got to hand it to Sytner for enthusiasm for this model.

They've got a 35iS in their Nottingham showroom atm. It's a 2014. Remarkably it's got just 9,654 miles on the clock.

Even more remarkably, they want £30,000 for it. See https://www.sytner.co.uk/car-search/126 ... fb794c7139

Dealers are paying fair money at the moment for the right car. Gotta be worth a call ?

Surprised this hasn’t sold tbh

You could always contact them and send them a video if interested or give you a ball park valuation. That's how I bought the zed I have now. First time I saw it was when I went to pick it up in London. Must be worth a telephone call or an email?

When I sold my 30i I emailed Sytner who sent someone round to look at it, then they arranged for someone else to come and collect it a week later. That was a manual 30i with zero extras, so I'm sure they would be just as keen to come and collect a 35iS.

I think it was [email protected] who handles buying for them, worth getting in touch with him if you're interested in finding out what they can offer.

Hi All,

I've had a few strong enquiries for the car, but the issue seems to be location - all the interested buyers were in the south east or on the south coast and the logistics of buying a car in Glasgow have been an obstacle.

I've reduced the price to £16,650 on Autotrader accordingly.

For forum members in further flung places (more than a couple of hours away from Glasgow), I'm offering a further £250 contribution to help cover the delivery cost or time off work for travel.

Here's the revised advert and price: https://www.autotrader.co.uk/car-detail ... =on&page=1

Cheers

I am shocked this has not gone as anywhere else it would be £20k - if someone is serious they will travel to viewer certain

Surely a journey to get a new car is all part of the fun? Surprised this hasn't sold yet.

Did you try Sytner?

I’m surprised that it’s not sold too. If south of the border there’d be a queue I’d imagine.

Saying that, the revised ad now with a contribution towards delivery/travel cost should surely tip it towards a sale. The £250 will cover at worst half the costs to get it delivered to pretty well anywhere in the U.K. from Glasgow and if being used for travel, a flight, possibly hotel and fuel costs for the return home will be covered by the £250 even if you take your OH for the trip.

I had a great journey to get mine, from Glasgow to the Isle of Skye by train then ferry. Drove back over the Skye bridge and down by Eilean Donan Castle, over Rannoch Moore and then down the side of Loch Lomond.

For anyone not considering this car because of distance, a flight from Stansted to Glasgow costs from about £30, which is pretty much free when you're buying a £16k car! If you're feeling fancy you can get BA from Heathrow for around £60.

The bus ride into Glasgow from the airport is pricey at around a tenner, but you can get a hotel room for approximately peanuts.

Sounds like a good excuse for a drive home through the lake district to me. Or the NC500...

Now that does sound like fun to me - makes buying the car that little bit special compared to a 30 minuet drive from a car supermarket

Hi TeeMac

I’ll drop you a message if that’s ok with some additional questions.

Apologies - I’m new to the board and there doesn’t seem to be a PM function unless I’m missing it.

How is best to have a chat about the car for you?
