Hi Andy. Yea the more I thought about it the more I prefered the MV2s. Managed to sell my 107s for a good price however I've spent almost £200 on fitting and balancing all these different wheels, maybe I should buy my own machine!

If I can sell it then I quite fancy a Z4MR or an Exige 190 or putting some money in the bank and getting a MR2 Roadster - always been a fan of these.

The coupe really is a stunning, doubt I'll ever own a better looking car in my life and it's very fast - so if I dont get any takers then I'll just keep it for another year or two. Then do some mods, spacers and AUX being the first :thumbsup:
 
think the lotus would disappoint on overall package but make you grin when you wanted :) the ZMr should be a better buy with winter coming 8) tough decision
as you say , the coupe's looks are fantastic & personally i never tire of the curves .
good luck & keep us informed how things go
 
real shame this does not have yellow/black seats, still its a bargain

i would say keep it, i think 1 day it will start to rise in value
 
Keep it, not worth selling for this price.

Prices will rise one day but I highly doubt it will be above the value it is now..
 
stick hold Tom .
" careful what you wish for " is an old saying & for £8600 i'd love to see the list of alternatives with the same characteristics & running costs :wink:
 
Had a few people contact me about the sale of my car and every one was disappointed that it did'nt have sat nav, appears its a very popular option.

Well the simple answer is nothing! I've considered a Boxster S or a Cayman but they don't look anywhere near as good and cost much more in maintenance - same applies to the E46 M3. Always loved the 650i but I suspect it will be more dull to drive and can be expensive to fix. I want something which won't depreciate too much, my 'burn rate' on my old 3.0i roadster was £100 a month over 3.5 years - not bad at all compared to new cars but it's still £100 a month! I don't do many miles at all which is why the Exige/Z4M are top of my list should the coupe sell.

I agree my car is very low spec but it's priced accordingly to reflect this, I think the reason I haven't had much interest is because of the colour. If you don't like PY then it doesn't matter if I price it at £7000 - you still won't buy it, likewise someone who loves PY might have been prepared to give me £10,000!
