[Eric]

snow clearing here now. Good luck

Have not heard from him yet; hope he will reply soon.
Have alreading called the bank and taken a few days off the first week in January

[Coasting]

It does look very nice that one good luck with it.

I pm'd the seller about the car. Big problem is that there is to much snow fallen to drive to the UK to see this car or even fly.. I hope it will be better next week and than I try to visit the seller. As I said it looks very nice and the more I look at the Mk 1's the more I like them..

Does anyone knows the company who is selling #170?

Don't know the company sorry and not going to be able to get over that way to check it out either though might be tempted to see if they would swap it for mine if i did!
I do know the area a little bit where you are from and we were over near there with the V8's last year! Well it was more Flevoland and a drive over the Houtribdijk! Very nice area where you live as spent a week on holiday there about 5 years back

I wonder how far that is from Coen? (CDE453 on here) ??????

I would say about an hour and a half to 2 hours as Coen lives near Utrecht.

Coen is from Houten and Merl is right: about 2 hours from where I live.
Got a reply from the seller of #170. He sticks very near to the price of GBP 7450. Strangely the car is GBP 7250 on their website.
Think I make him an offer but what would be realistic ..? (any advice is welcome).

Yup thats the place!

Hmm dealers are very strange people especially when it comes down to prices!
I paid £6300 for mine from a private seller and is a mkI but in XPG so you could say the Blue might increase the price slightly but it really depends on what colour you want and if it must be Royal Blue how much you are willing to pay! Prices vary so much on our cars :/

It does look a very good example and I would be tempted by it myself. Oh it also has the Accufab Throttle body fitted which I think is about £400?

Ohh and might be more on ebay to cover fees?

Might be best to hear back from some of our garage owning members but I would say £7000 and let them know you are looking at others! Looks like James at elite has an XPG one onn at 6995 oh wait no vat but has a warranty...

Private sale for a silver one at £5,795 with 49k and there is one with 100k on the clock for £4750 and the mustang engine should be good for another 100k at least prob another 200k though the clutch....

Probably didn't help at all sorry

I think I would pay £7k for her but then I have seen similar ones for less just depends what colour you want and how long you want to wait... and if prices start going up again...

7250 on their website. I would happily pay 7000 but would be even happier with 6750.

What sort of warranty / MOT / Roadtax is with it?
