Seems a bit cheap, and marmite
One of my ex girlfriends father bought one identical to that from new. Bet he was well pissed off how much it had lost when he went to get rid!

Colin be very careful of places like Motorpoint.. Even though they look UK spec etc you generally get justa 1 year warranty and problems with parts in the future.
However much they are a shower of wankers Arnold Clark will be very hard to beat for a price of pre reg and new stuff..
Also wee tip, if you are going to buy from a dealer, know what you want and go in a couple of days before month end and place your demands out quite clearly.. 9 times out of 10 a dealer will happily lose money to get a last minute deal for their figures.

Range in that colour clearly looks like an early one.
Jag dealer by me has a silver one for not much more.

The AA inspection is really bad. They put my C2 through which had no front pads left, burnt out clutch, fucked gearbox, dodgy wheel bearing and needed new front tyres.
Only thing i pick on with the Corsa i had got was the wheels had been sprayed at some point as the paint started to pear. But that was a 4,000 mile car when i got it. I'm convinced they get ex insurance courtesy cars in there.

Went to motorpoint, it was shite, they didnt even have any nice cars in stock.
Almost bought a 2k mile (Ex Honda UK management car) S2000 from Glasgow Honda.
This one -
Absolute blinder of a deal....im tempted!! Came home to chew over the deal & phone back once I make up my mind (easier said than done!!  ).

I know I know, but just think it will all be over then & i'll have nothing to post about!!
In my heart I want an RS but this is 10k cheaper & I can have it next week, not next year. I like it, it drives well & its a good deal.
There taking in my 110k golf and giving me £3000 for it. Extra £500 off the price of the car, 5% finance on the ballance (minus px & deposit) & paying to have my private plate changed over!! Time to listen to my head??

How much is the Honda?
Doesn't look that special to me, certainly wouldn't want to pay £15k for it.

If i was prepared to spend 25k and saw this for 22k
My decision would be over. I'm not usually fussed over BM's, but that is immense.

Its 16.5k with £3k for my car. You'd never pick up an 07 with 2k miles for 15k, unless in the trade which im not.
