hi guys thinking of buying this car, what do you guys think?

 

damaged wing and door.... door no longer closing, if the door isnt closing due to damage to the frame that holds the door could it turn in a nightmere buy...

 

im looking for a decent run around, cant face teh vx as a everyday car :0)

A few years ago I vowed never to buy another Saab.

 

Needed to replace a drivers door card, was £900.

 

I know that's not relevant to your post, I'm just having a rant.

 

Not surprised they went bust charging that much for spare parts, people don't like being ripped off.

I'm loving the logic of spending £18k on one of the most extreme Vx's, then needing a 'shed' to avoid driving it. :lol:

will book a trackday at sompoint..trying to find the time :0)

 

not planning to keep the car long few months of summer as im in the middle of a self build house....my money's going to dry out mid summer. I will still have my fun with it...always wanted to own a high powered vx s/c, next on the list when funds are there will be a high power turbo, thats where my heart is.

No, gone through the roof?

 

Been a few years now since a VX has been on the drive.
