S1 Exige on pistonheads

This has just gone on pistonheads,anyone know anything about the car.http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/3536694.htm

Looks like a good one… maybe?

looks too good to be true, looked at bank loan already and will call him tomorrow when I get out of work.

Oddly worded advert:

[color:#3333FF]Used daily but virtually no track action, I’m not really making proper use of it so it’s time to spend some money on it or try something new.[/color]

Why on earth would someone put up an ad for that car at 16k when it’s obvious it’d sell in an instant at 20k, or even more. Maybe I’m just too suspicious and this is a case of someone really not knowing what he’s got.

Just tried to phone,not available at moment please phone back.Sounds like an old bloke[like me].It is a strange ad.no real information.

its a crap advert for someone who wants to sell the car…and even i know thats cheap as chips…

maybe genuine, but not the best way to go about selling a car…

Fantastic buy for someone! Maybe his wife is advertising it for him :frowning:

Mine will be doing the same on Saturday when she finds a second loti in the garage :slight_smile: (hopefully)

The seller is probably being inundated with e-mail enquiries, and I wouldn’t be surprised if they figure something is up, and pull the ad!

I want it though! :sunglasses:

I think Kelvyn Woodhead has bought it.

Kelvin woodhead?

Great photos - not sure about reg numbers/letters covering rad intake.

Illegal too :crazy:

So now its �19k ffs

Let the Dutch Auction begin! :smiley:

Well I was nearly right!
�19K is still a good price.

Yup i expected that really, I was all up for buying and collecting this morning until the seller changed his mind.

May not be such a bargain now.Suspension refresh and possibly an engine rebuild,maybe tyres and a clutch could add �5k even doing the work yourself.Oh well stay wiyh the S2 and other toys.

At least he seems to be honest:

"OK I SEEM TO HAVE SERIOUSLY UNDERESTIMATED THE DEMAND FOR THIS SO TO TRY AND PREVENT MY PHONE FROM MELTING I HAVE PUT THE PRICE UP TO A MORE REALISTIC VALUE.

For those people who have called already, Please be patient I will return calls strictly in rotation and try and work out some viewings"

looks a nice car though, a good overhaul would make it a minter
