Sad day, sorry guys

[stevie_a]

Well looks as it the ownership of the Z3 is coming to an end

Going to have to sell it to buy a car for my little girl, my daughter needs to learn to drive and get car so she can go to university.

I have 3 cars and a van at the house so i really can't have another

we buy any car will give me £1900 for it, so was going to see what i would get for trade in.

I was hoping to get £ 2500 to £3000 on a private sale ( what do you think ? am i dreaming ?)

It is a 2000 "W" 1.9 German import so all black leather with electric heated seats

67,000 miles
M.O.T Expires: 31 August 2019

this is the culprit

Work still to be done :

Rear trailing arm bushes
inspect rattle from exhaust ( new from cat back so thinking heat shield )
ABS sender on back wheel (might try and get this done this weekend )

some small spots of rust in usual places on sill just behind front wheel
needing a good polish .

Well there you go, sorry guys

Sell the van!

You need to have a word with someone about public transport - and keep the Zed!

sadly uni is Edinburgh and i an Glasgow, but at the end of the day i want to start her off on a good foothold in car ownership

AS A DADDY WOULD DO

 

[Mazza]

Move to Edinburgh, so she can walk or get a bus

 

[stevie_a]

That would cost more that getting a private limo to uni every day

 

[Bampz]

Let her finish uni first if she graduates then get a car , also gives you 4 more years of open top motoring

 

[stevie_a]

Still got the TR for open top motoring

Took it out the garage for the first time this year last weekend

 

[stevie_a]

Sell the van!

Sell the van, no money coming in , no cars for nobody

The rail service is excellent between the two city’s of Glasgow and Edinburgh. Also they will not be happy with students parking in the City. The parking charges might sway your mind a little. Just saying.

 

[BMBabe]

Give her the ZED

I amazed that we buy any car offered what they did, thats a huge offer from them

I saw somewhere a chap was offered £600

 

[colb]

Offer would go down when you turn up with it and they inspect it that's how they operate pull you in then devalue your car
