just toying with a few ideas :)

i cant seem to get a feel for the value of 1.8T NB's. mine is a jan 04 in platty grey, 35k, standard apart from slightly lowered and delta x alloys and tacky turbo badge :D. generally in v good nick.

also wondering how difficlut they are to sell privately as its a funny price band..ie brand new small cars with a warrenty etc can be bought for the same money and poeple tend to spend that sort fo money at garages dont they?? not sold a car privately fro a long time and that was an old golf cabrio.

couple of options im considering. ie NB cab, Audi A4 estate, A3...and for some reason i like the Toyota avensis (i dont know why?????lol) i have no specific requirements so its just what i fancy really.

The Avensis is bland repmobile cack - I know a couple of people who have them for this purpose and find them as interesting as dishwater!! Remeber you are 30ish not 60ish :o

As for the bug - don't know but my Dad was talking about selling his lupo for a platty grey bug at the weekend (and he is 60ish!!). I would guess £7k?

throw in a topless photo jools and the car is yours!! :D

wheat crunchies eh?? you know my weaknesses!! spicy tomato? or the lesser spotted Worcester sauce flavour.

ive been thinking about this 7 grand thing and if thats what ill get for it id rather keep it. its funny how everyone always thinks their car is worth more than it is :(

maybe i should chip it and buy the private plate ive always promised myself to give me that `new toy' feeling again. :)

Archie was up for 8.5K and sold for that, as soon as he went on Ebay!

If you wanna sell it use Ebay, Archie sold within a day of going on there, I didn't get a bite in 2 weeks of being in Autotrader!
