Hi all, I'm just stepping out of a Boxster and looking for a 3.0 si manual as a weekend car if anyone is thinking of selling. I don't really want to go over £9k but hope I can get a clean reasonable spec facelift for that? Is there much of a summer price hike as i can wait until autumn if it's worth it? :)

Always a blip in prices RE summer / winter but not extortionate by any means
Maybe add a brief summary of criteria & welcome , very decent examples do come up here that don't get advertised elsewhere
PM sent about a possible car for you :thumbsup:
 
I'm not sure on spec as being a newbie I don't know what is standard on the Si :lol: Colour wise my preference is black or grey with black leather. Sat nav and electric seats are a preference but not a deal breaker.
 
I just bought a pretty mint 2006 3.0si Sport roadster in silver. 45k miles, a new roof motor and full history etc and I paid £7750 from an independent dealer.

Mine has electric leather and upgraded brakes but unfortunately no heated seats or nav. Only bad point is the headlights have gone a bit foggy.

Just thought it might help give you an idea on prices/budget. Good luck with your search

Yeah it has. Sport models have them and the m sport steering wheel as standard I believe. Seems to be I have one of the very few without heated seats though!

Wrong colour and not a fan of the interior personally, but looks a tidy car and a decent price?

That's a nice motor at fair money , the MB with light grey looks a treat to me , just needs decent prep & pics to catch it right :thumbsup:
 
I've looked at that ad a few times and it does look like a good buy but I can't warm to the colour combo.....and as of tomorrow this household will be a soft top free zone :o

Hi, I will be selling my '07 3.0si manual soon....probably at the start of july.
 
Hi, have you got any internal pics as I haven't seen silver with blue nappa before?
Please pm me some more details mileage, money etc... :thumbsup:
Cheers

I should be sorted for a car now. Complete change of plan and opting for an E89 found on the forum :driving: :thumbsup:
 
Interesting turn :wink: behind the wheel less engaging to drive than Si roady but can't see why you should be disappointed
Look forward to the pics :thumbsup:
 
Good choice pastry, still got the musical 6 pot engine which means the sterio is redundant :D
I may see you on the dark side myself one day :wink:
