Another 'it passed' post with possible little bonus?

mininuts · 16th May 2017, 16:41

Took the ZT-T for its MOT today, passed no problem but with one advisory - outer skin on rear silencer breaking away. Been the same for the last five years

Anyway, whilst at the village garage, I noticed another ZT-T parked up, thought it was in for a test so, I asked who's it was. I got the reply "yours if you want it"

Turns out some guy was on holiday and his fuel pump packed in so instead of waiting for parts to arrive, he bought another car and px'd his ZT-T.
It's a 1.8 120 manual, quite tidy all round, fuel issue fixed and MoT until Nov but, no history

The sales guy wants £350 but, Andy, the mechanic, said the longer it sits at the garage, the cheaper it will get. If I can get it for £200. I might just be the owner of two ZT-Ts

What do you think, worth £350 or should I hold out a while?

BoroRover · 16th May 2017, 16:47

Looks good.....if you can get it at less than he's asking, fine, still a bargain at £350 I reckon.

Ravinder · 16th May 2017, 17:07

Offer £250 and grab it.

Dallas · 16th May 2017, 17:08

Paul, you should had offered £250.

Annie · 16th May 2017, 17:18

id have offered 250 cash and then walked away. got to be worth at least 250 surely

Rooney · 16th May 2017, 17:20

Incredible how cheap these cars are in England.

That sound is me falling off my chair - snap it up Paul

madeupname · 16th May 2017, 17:24

Agreed. Some of the prices are ridiculous. Can't stay like that for much longer surely?

Coups · 16th May 2017, 17:25

£350.........I'm not sure I'd even haggle. It's a steal!
