Fancy a FFRR, started off with an £8-10k budget for my car, then looked at what I could get, so upped it a bit to accommodate a facelift, now I've settled on facelift and newer interior, so budget getting silly...

Initially wanted a Supercharged, but they seem strong money, and also seem to struggle to sell (I have to think about this as I get bored easy and sell my toys in 3-6 months).

So, TDV8 or Supercharged....I REALLY would want newest possible, but don't want to stretch to £14-15k.

Heeeeelp!

Supercharged every time!

You don't have a black and white TV just because the licence fee is a bit cheaper do you?!

Besides, holistic overall ownership costs and the SC is cheaper in my opinion.

Good luck! 2006 4.2 SC

That's my thinking as well. Just had a V10 5.2, so fuel isn't a problem, well, it is, but you know...

Worth taking a look at Muttley's SC - PM him on here...... 2006 4.2 SC

His is lovely but out of my price range unfortunately.

So what is your budget ???

£12-13 ish

For £12 - £13 all you get is a couple of dustcaps .....



Sorry couldn't resist ...

A couple? You sure?

You'd get a dozen for that - they've crashed in price

I have to say after trying to help you via pm ( not trying to convince you mine is the one for you ) I find your post amusing and if you want what you are describing you will have to find the money and I am not trying to push mine here !

And as for hard to sell as I have said in pm its not your every day car and a lot of people out there want cars that do silly amounts of MPG or they want something for silly money

You might pick one up within your budget but all I will say is good luck with it and hope you have the funds to throw at it as I have thrown in excess of 26K at mine , thats including buying it.

But as said in pm I wish you luck in your search

ps .... just got a phone call from a guy who has been in mine a week ago and has kept in contact since and is on his way over to have another look, I know he wants the car , its just making that decision to part with the money so heres hoping

Sounds like you just missed a good TDV8 in your price range - try posting a wanted ad, it will get more attention than this thread
