Get in touch with Gianni Santilli on Facebook and through the VX220 group on there. He's about to advertise a 21k mile Red NA that's in superb condition.

Thanks spoken to him a few times - his cars a bit over budget for me, but yes indeed lovely looking car!

Seems odd to me that you can't find a nice one for £15k. Maybe there are just so few left now the turnover is slowing up.

I'm expecting this to be our last year stocking so many. I think we have 7 or 8 in at the moment but we have had periods where we have had none. We have a great crop in at the moment but it's rare that any new ones pop up now.

Being honest at the moment i personally feel the prices are just to high for me, - if they are selling at those prices is another thing!

We don't discount any of ours which are normally the expensive ones. You might get 250 quid off in winter. Prices are unlikely to go down as the number of cars is dwindling to almost none. I think at one stage we had half of the cars listed on pistonheads. I can't foresee a time when it would be better to buy. You have about 2 weeks before spring kicks in.

This bloke is what the trade call a dreamer. I am tempted to be less charitable but I must be getting old.

Think this will be the norm as prices go up, people think that Vx's are a cheap car. Not the case any longer and many will now realise that they missed the boat. Sent from my SM-G903F using Tapatalk

I am being honest, just to let people know im out the game looking, dont wish to waste anyones time.

 

On top of this in my personal life a few things have changed, and we now have ok to do work on our house, so decided i need to focus on that also and not be selfish spending money on another car that will probable be used very sparingly!

 

When i had my vxt i literally searched for a year to find what was in my opinion a top example at a fair price, i maybe in the minority in the community i wanted a really nice tidy example, unmolested, no paint bubbling etc etc its just how i am with cars im really into car detailing and being realistic searching for a 15 + year old car this is extremely hard to find - I did find one that sadly was just out of my budget and we came very close to sorting a deal, but was just down to my budget.

 

Anyway justification over to complete strangers!

 

As i said its just for me PERSONALLY I feel my budget would not allow me to get the kind of example im looking for, its that simple.
