These are pretty cheap aren't they?

[retrogeezer]

Saw this at the supermarket car park yesterday, seems like a lot of car for £10k with a 'lifetime warranty'

 

We paid £9k for an 18 month old Picasso in 2003!

this is autoshite surely we should be talking about 1k not 10k 

[HillmanImp]

I cant see the picture.

[retrogeezer]

I didn't mean for anyone here to buy, just thought it was cheap for a 'new' car.

[retrogeezer]

Any good HillmanImp?

 

[cort16]

What is it I see no piktur

[cort16]

Oh right now I see it

[chaseracer]

That's pretty unimpressive* parking...

[Conrad D. Conelrad]

Ten grand for that is a real bargain, especially as you can drag the warranty out for a decade or so.

 

With ten grand I'd buy a good DS or an excellent P6 but I can see the appeal of that red thing if you just want an easy life without buses.

I still sooner walk I think, my sister works for a large main dealers down south and was showing me some of the staff discounts she can get for family, I was getting excited by a 6 month old Focus ST-3 in performance blue yesterday which she could save me £4000, it was still £20000 though.

 

I'm thinking about giving up on shite cars next year about my recent adventures and buying a newish Fiat 500 Twinair for my wife to use, she can save me £2000 on the forecourt price of a used one of them.

[chaseracer]

At least we now know how long VXLs (which R ALL SHIT M8) are designed to last...

[Richard]

What is it? I can't tell in the phone, and I'm not sure I would recognise it anyway. It looks like a barried mk1 Zafira.

[Conrad D. Conelrad]

Where are you getting the seven years from? I thought it was 100,000 miles time unlimited for the first owner.

[Richard]

Wasn't Vauxhall's lifetime warranty exposed as a lie?

[HillmanImp]

I see it now, ta. Not sure why we cant in the top one. 

 

That is pretty cheap, but is that deal only on finance? I bet if you walked in off the street with £9,999 they would tell you to FRO. Is it £199pm over a period of 6 years or summink?

[Albert Ross]

I'm actively considering THIS. Yes, a Vauxhall. But it's a bloody good one. I tested it on Sunday, serviced it on Monday. I just want it.... I don't pay screen price BTW. Ex-Motability and the description is wrong, it's an Auto. What could possibly go wrong?

[Lacquer Peel]

WHAT THE FUCK! Who gives a shit about the price of new Zafiras?

[londonm]

Not a bad price, however, with my experience of my girlfriends new Vauxhall the lifetime warranty means getting anally raped with a red hot poker by the twat on the dealership service desk every year. 'that's correct sir, we'd like to fit a new pollen filter for £100.00' Not joking about that either, utter twats.

 

Buy it and service it a normal garage.

BUY A VAUXHALL ALBANY.

[retrogeezer]

WHAT THE FUCK! Who gives a shit about the price of new Zafiras?

 

Not me, my latest daily driver cost the equivalent of 5 weeks payments on it but hey, new Dacha's and Kia's and the like are discussed on here so why not this eh?

[retrogeezer]

Just to balance things up for Len, I saw this too but it wasn't for sale so we can't discuss the price of it.

Morrisons car park

[retrogeezer]

A good place for shite spotting, but not as good as Grand Junction retail park!

[Junkman]

10k of my hard earned for this dismal piece of shit?

Thanks, I rather walk. Or buy a Maserati. Or a wheelbarrow. Or some fuggin thing.

[For Fiats Sake]

I threw the same money at a dealer for a pre-registered hyundai i20 a few years ago.

 

I was bored of it so traded it for a 2 year old 500,

 

got bored with that and traded it for a Panda.

 

Wish I'd kept the money in the bank and my 8 year old Yaris instead

 

Don't do it.

That is a lot of new car for the money. no good for me, everyone else has got one, I enjoy the exclusivity of having the oldest car in the works car park by a considerable margin. I didn't buy my first sierra until 15 years after they stopped making them and all the 2.4 children families had moved onto the mondeo.

[Cavcraft]

One of the reasons (besides the big one, lack of money) that I don't think I'll ever buy a new/nearly new car is that at first it'd be great, but after about 3 months I'd be bored and stuck with a BFO finance bill/watching my 'investment' piss itself away each day.

 

In todays market though ten large seems quite good for a car like that.
