Another GV06 scott, like yours and Stew's. I wonder how many of the 06 plates have that prefix?

Quote from: "Chilli Girl"Hi there,

No news back for the Gumtree one so I would presume it may've been sold BUT found an 03 low mileage nearby that I'm going to take a look at on Fri pm. Don't fancy going on my own much, it's abit scary?  Does anyone fancy a trip to see it and check it out with me?   s:) :) s:)

Sorry , we used to live in Salisbury but moved away
And now it's too far to go for the day
Hopefully someone nearer than me
Will be willing to help you when you go to see.
Come on chaps that live in Wiltshire
A helping hand could be worth a no alcohol beer.

Hi, would you be interested in mine?

I can remove the hardtop and BC coilovers, the rest stay for £3200.

Seems a good price.
Chilli could remove some of the extra bracing and sell on and the car would be even cheaper.
First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a socialist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.

Thanks Scotte for posting the above, just abit out of my price range. I like the sound/look of the above tho.
Hi 1E7-ZZW30, if you could reduce to 3k I would b v interested, I'm just conscious I shall need to tax it so it would then be in my price range.  I'm coming up to Scotland for Christmas & New Year, may I, if you still have it, come and view it then? As Scotte said, I'm not bothered abt extra bracing, BC coilovers, hardtop, etc. as wont ever b racing it.  Certainly would prefer to b buying a car off this excellent forum & sounds as if you've looked after it.

I'd be willing to buy the  coilovers from you Scottie if that'll help the process if they're at the right price.

What would you be wanting for them?

Bit higher mileage than I think you'd like, but local, from the interior it looks in good shape and reasonable money.

Dealer as well, so can be ultra picky, get some stuff done as well as have a comeback/guarantee for the first few months

Yeh, emailed dealer about this but they never got back to me which tends to put me off! Thanks anyway.

Hi Chilli, if I remove all the bracing too, then yes, I would reduce it to £3000.
Viewing is absolutely fine, just let me know.

Hi HFB, not sure yet, but i think there's a set went for £500 not long ago.

Ok great. You've probably already answered all the normal questions before like when it was last given a service by yourself, etc.  It's likely to be early Jan when I shall be up there so look forward to seeing you in 2016!  Look after it until then, will you?!!  Chilli may well be back sooner than you guys/gals think!

No, couldn't get away from work in time, sadly! Now concentrating on this 55 reg as after a later 2 if I was honest!  Looking forward to seeing the silver one in Jan tho!   s:D :D s:D

The last service I did was just before the MOT, which is in Sep/Oct. Since,  I have only managed to cover around 300 miles.
The car is in hibernation since the end of November now so it's snuggled up  s:P :P s:P

Like my ex Chilli, both snuggled up but at different ends of the country!

HELP - I don't know what to do!  As you all know I enquired about the gumtree 05 black with 44,500 miles on it and as I hadn't heard I thought it had been sold.  Anyway yesterday I got an email saying it was still for sale and I could have the car for £2,500 which I thought was an excellent price.  It's had only 2 owners, the last guy has had it for 6.5 years and only used as a summer car and only done 6,000 miles in all that time.  I asked re history but the latest full service was in Aug 12 at 41,000 miles done by Toyota Dumfermline.  Apparently it has had an interim service seen then but my concern is it obviously hasn't had a lot else during his ownership because of the little miles it's done!  My question is, is this a good buy or am I likely to get a lot of problems because of its little use?  Help me please!  s:( :( s:(

Have you a link to the advert? I would say well worth a look with that mileage and year.
Could be a winter bargain.

Too cheap.
Bargains send my alarm bells ringing.
Worth a closer look however.

Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.

Coming from a complete ftsh Chilli, serviced each year almost to the same day & same month, new oil, etc. etc.  My question/concern was how healthy is the engine if oil hasn't been changed for 3 years plus?  It is cheap, I agree.

I'm still hoping to pop and see the silver 55 from the forum in January as I believe that's been regularly serviced by him but also raced once!    s:? :? s:?
