just thought i would let you all know,

I might be getting one sooner than i thought, so have arranged a viewing tomorrow at Dicksons of Dunblane. (50 min drive from me)

they have a white one ready to go, and a blue one still to be SVA'd.

Would really like red, but think I should have a good rumage about the car to make sure its what i want, then i can decide on colour.

Will let you know how it goes...although, i did ask if it had the C-Pack, and he said "Whats that?" :lol:

ok, so went up today and had a good look:

they had a white one in the showroom, looked in gret condition, red interior, C-pack, no start button, fog light cut into bumper. 20k on the clock and he wanted 16495

a blue one, drivers side seat bolster had collapsed (4.5 grade). he took us a run in the car, and it sounded sweet, and drove with a nice level of comfort.

didnt get a test drive myself, so still feel a bit undecided.

have to say though, that the silver one that he had just sold, looked the best of the colours. i know white is the 'Proper' colour for one, but dont think i could cope with the cleaning regime needed to keep it looking as good as it deserves.

blue looked great when the sunlight hit it..
still need to see a red one in the flesh, as from the pictures i have seen, this is still my favourite.

Allan that i spoke too was very helpful.

have to say that the price does seem a bit steep for the white one
hope you have some luck and get one soon

good choice.....it looked great..

i did think that he was a bit steep considering what you can get down south for less money.

sorry for not replying sooner, but ive been exploring my options...and a BMW Z3M-coupe is looking tempting.. :oops:

the white one i had a look at in their showroom had broken interior trim, scraped n/s head light lens, red peeling off type-r badge and symetrical scuffing on the front apron where it appaered to have been rallied on or off a transporter, and three different tyres, for a Y plate i thought it was rather steep, was about £16500 i think.

Yeah, what truffs said :)
I'm after an Evo 9 - just fancy a new project car. There's nothing further I want to do with the Teg and I really fancy something with a hairdryer (turbo). Much as though I've loved my time with the Teg I feel the time has come for a change.
