Good luck with the hunt
You should find a high mileage 04/54 Azure GT for your budget - just check the service history with a fine tooth comb - I highly doubt you'll find one with 'factory sat nav' though -(and why you would want it I don't know - the birdseye was pish) this wasn't part of the GT spec either.
Have a look at Irfan's
As long as it had had at least five services wouldn't bother me in slightest With that sort of mileage it is likely to have been motorway mileage as well so hopefully less wear & tear.

Don't think much of the advert but when you click through to the website - they're a motorsport company and seem to know what they're doing- would be worth a call to find out it's history. It has already been dropped by nearly £500 so they want it sold

The real totty from yesterday - you know how I like to go a bit 'left field' ... (and before SMD steps in with a smutty comment about bestiality the answer is NO! )
Valegro - Charlotte Du Jardin's horse - simply stunning animal
Cheers Vic, have been looking at the paypal screen all week, going to hit confirm tonite,
Its 80quid if u havnt used Alex's link yet.
I'd get it bought if I were you - TScot is usually sold out and onto wait list by the time the date comes round
I had daft experience with Admiral... cancelled the zed insurance the day she went. They started by offering me £330 refund which basically meant I had paid over £200 for less than two months cover - (renewal is start of June) I pointed this out to them and said if this was the case I would cancel the whole policy and remove the Astra as well - suddenly the refund was £560 (which was more than the zed's part of the premium in the first place )
When I was about to purchase the Saab one week later I called to add it to the policy - they couldn't get the quote below £450 even though online as a single car policy it was coming in at £390 and they still hadn't processed the refund for the zed.
I went with Aviva in the end but then they f*cked up the quote based on NCB and came back looking for another £80 two days after insurance - if I didn't pay it they would cancel insurance. I cancelled with them went back to Admiral reduced the expected mileage on the Astra as SAAB will be main car - put me as policy holder on both cars ( not me on one and Gary on the other) and hey presto Saab down to £300 until next June.
I mean WTF is that all about? Its a feckin racket it really is!
Never had any issues with clients - and I work with some pretty hardcore young people - infact the zed used to be a really good icebreaker for those lads who were 'harder to reach'
When I worked in residential child care though - my old car was battered and abused several times - but it was never just mine so I didn't take it personally
You'll find that you get an email from them about a week before confirming your place and giving you all the information. Sign on and briefing usually starts half an hour before. Mr T usually attends Track Scotland sessions if he gets the chance - drop him a PM
