I am considering selling my TP as I have the chance of buying something else. If anybody or you know of anybody who may be interested in the car please let me know. Serious buyers only please. The car is located in Central Scotland and pictures are available in Members Car profile on this site. It is a very good (not perfect but could be) example and I am only the second owner. Wink

Think long and hard mate, you wont find a nicer Vitesse than that if you do sell it and realise you have made the wrong decision!

This makes me feel really bad, & also makes me realise how much work my vitesse actually needs!

Hi stephen

I can't make out the info for the car sale as my browser won't point to the right place! Can you direct me to the relevant website or PM me as I am interested in the car
Cheers

Well... anything under 10 000£ would be just silly? Dont do it! Its a bad idea... I remember when I was a kid. My dad sold our 820Si and we got a 3500 in trade. We had it for a week and I liked it a lot more! When my dad sold it and bought another 820Si I thought it was a stupid thing to do and asked why he did it? He told me 820 is newer and better car and I just refused to believe in what he said. So if you got kids... i bet they gona say the same? DONT DO IT! BAD IDEA!

Thanks for the interest - I have been away so have not been able to reply. I have decided to keep the car for now after taking lots of advice from lots of people (sore ears) as I will struggle to find another like it.

I have been in a similar position before and sold a fantastic Targa Red Vitesse but was offered a deal that was too good to refuse and lenabled me to buying an MG RV8 - only to regret selling the Vitesse but love the RV8 (having said that I can see it at anytime as I sold it to a lovely guy who stays less than a couple of miles away).

So once again sorry for messing about and thanks to all of you who showed an interest you know who you are!!! Wink

Again for those of you who showed an interest I may be swayed again in the future but for now it stays with me..................
