Totally agree …cheers9designs said:I'd say a good price for a coupe, I have my Auto Roadster up for sale with 130K miles.
Market does seem flat, by the lack of interest I'm getting. That and I believe people expectation are off, wanting no risk, no faults on what basically is near 20 year old car with miles. They all will want looking after, fixing, but everything is fixable. Other wise go buy a nearly new hatchback with a warranty from a dealer!![]()
We are staring at future of soulless EV's and speed limiters and nanny state cars that we don't actually drive.... These cars should cherished and maintained.

Agree with you, if the car is in generally good condition it could last many years to come if maintained correctly, it’s done no more than 2,000 miles in the last 12 months, if I wasn’t working in Slovenia so having to take my van I would drive down in the zed without a second thought and that is 2,200 milesFred Smith said:True-Blue said:Fred Smith said:Obviously I don't know what other issues this car might have, but on the face of it the only issue this car has is the mileage.. this poor car only has 100k to 150k miles (or 250k?) left in the engine.
Im not sure if this post is supposed to be ironic, comedic or serious?
Perhaps you could clarify, because one thing it isn’t is accurate.
It was supposed to be a joke but with a serious point. The only issue this car has (assuming that the car is as good in person as it looks in the ad) is the mileage. And given it has an N52 engine that means it is likely to have 100k to 150k - and maybe much more - left in that engine. At 5k a year mileage the car has 20-30 years or more left in it!!!
