Well i know the first question is going to be "Why Jay, you've only had it two months"

Answer: Im going to be moving to Dubai . I just back from Dubai 2 weeks ago and i have decided its where i want to go, so i have been applying for IT jobs out there and having a good response. I could leave the UK within 6 weeks. So i am putting my VX220 Turbo for sale, and giving myself plenty of time as i would like it sold before i leave the U.K.

Heres the low down on the car:

2003 Shapphire Black VX220 Turbo
Full Vauxhall Service History
HPI Clear - Has been supplied by Vauxhall on every sale - Full Network Q Check
28,000 Miles
Red/Black Leather
Leather center console
JVC CD MP3 USB
Upgraded Speakers
Lumbar Support
Central Locking
Black Roof and Roof Bag
2 Keys and Fobs

Now when i bought the car it was from a VX220.org.uk member and was completely standard. I have done:

Black VXT Wheels
Black V-Grille
Black Petrol Cap & Surround
Black Windscreen Surround
De-badged Rear
Lowered Suspension (Eibach)
Airbox Mod

The car is very very clean apart from the usual stone chips on the front bumper, not to bad actually. The car has not tares in teh leather either. The car need a service in November this year, it has Tax and MOT until September (i think, will double check)

The only thing the car needs is rear brake pads which i will get replaced before its sold.

I really love my cars and do take care of them like nothing else, unfortunatly i wont be taking it to Dubai with me as i will need aircon there!!! And a brandnew Honda S2000 is only £16000 there!

I am wanting £14000ono for my VX, she is soooo worth it!!

I have a few pictures but nothing amazing, will take some proper ones tomorrow if it stops raining.

Cheers
Jay

£14K for a VXT with 28K on the clock and all the nice cosmetic bits already taken care of? Wow...don't think you'll be short of takers with this one - I really did leave the UK at the wrong time - if these are summer prices, imagine the bargains to be had in the depths of Winter Good luck in Dubai

Good luck in Dubai

£14K is a bargain

Cheers Guys, I think ive kinda priced it right for the current market and a quick sale. But i think ive priced it as a standard car should be. All my hardwork is worth nothing Didnt plan on selling it but you never know whats around the corner. Hopefully someone will snap it up and have a very very nice VXT.

Two months ownership is a long time for you mate - well done Good luck out in Duuubbie

[n1k_ns]

Can't believe you are selling up already! But good luck in Dubai mate!! Are you going on your own?

[JayK]

Richy i would have kept it at least the full summer if i wasnt going to Dubai. I know i got through cars like 2 christmas dinners a year, i like to sample different ones before i get old. Nick, yeh im going on my own, although i do know a few people already out there, but its an easy place to fit in so all is good. Im not too worried if someone doesnt buy it yet, but as soon as i a get a firm offer over there then i kinda have 4 - 6 weeks to shift it so im just thinking ahead. Cheers for the good luck's everyone. Jay

I hope your reply start with F, incuded 'Off' and concluded with a 'Blwaaam' and the phone went down.

Jay, best of luck with the sale, and the impending move This was my old car, I can vouch for how tidy it is, it's a good buy at this price given the mods, will be the perfect car when the sun finally comes out Jamie
