Well, new non-runflats.
Sheesh.
Frankly I would never not buy a car because it needed new tyres (just from old age). Plenty of other reasons, but getting new tyres isn't one of them.

Have to agree , there aren't many used cars no matter the budget that get sold to a new buyer & require zero spend & clearly this is one

You'd think a car so cared for would at least have clean exhaust tips, bugs me on all these adverts that no one cares to clean up the lovely chrome tips :cry:

Personally I'd say if you can't decide, then keeping it might be the best option for now.

Back in 2016 someone came to look at my 1st Coupe on a Sunday and said he would let me know. I took it for a drive on the Monday and he rang later to put a deposit on it. I put a deposit on it's replacement on the Thursday! :roll:

But replacing a good MC in a great colour might not quite so simple.

Would be better with a black interior to give contrast.

Would rather have a ///M roadster and £10k in my pocket.
We have been gazing a lot at this sepang car, and think that srhutch is quite right in saying that black may be a preferable colour for the trim. There was another popped up recently for sale as we recall, can someone point me in the direction of the adverts for that one please? Also came across one sold last year from the Woburn Bucks area, 48k miles with the maritime wood trim / black leather options. Thanks in advance.
Off the back of the sale over the weekend of the Darren Slone coupe, is the sepang car mentioned above known to any of the readers here?
Feel free to PM me if you have seen the car and could comment on it. Thanks for reading :?

It ended 10 days ago at £12k ( its very max worth right now imo) if you are tempted that colour interior was never a option so you would want to know how its been coloured

Interesting re the interior, it’s clearly had paint as you can see the overspray on the bumper mounting in one of the photo’s... not that that’s necessarily unexpected
