New Car.....

So im on my way down to the dealers at 10 to pick up my new car, sold the MGF full asking price (private) and managed to find this last week.

it's a 55 plate TT 225 with 27,000 on the clock. Managed to drop the dealer £1,000 have all four alloys re-done (light scuffs) and an audi service and new MOT.

insurance was not to bad either £640 = 21 with 4ncb

Very nice buy. How much was it then?

nice Golf

Not bad for 21, well done lad

Looks really tidy, our new apprentice is thinking about a 225 variant of the TT and they are becoming a good buy.

Like that.

Nice. How much it set you back?

Congrats!

All you need to do now is 'RE-MAP'

an apprentice earning enough for a 225 TT and running costs?!?!?! What is the world coming to? (my apprentice gets £70 a week and then minimum wage for the first year!)

He is saving, admittedly it's about a year off but yeah that's the idea.

He's probably going to buy a TT in the same way I'm going to buy a V8 Vantage

I am already on to it.

Im still a student in my final year, but i have saved for a car like this for a very long time.

That does seem like a good deal. I thought you would have paid about £13-£14k for that.

RoboCod · 28 Jan 2009 at 13:21

£11,700? So how did you finance that hmm? Can you really afford that? Don't you think you should have waited until 2015 until it fell considerably in price? Are you sure you wouldn't like some expert financial advice?

Seriously though, I like that very much. Well done awesome purchse.

£640 @ 21? Wowsers. Who's that with?

I pay more than that on the Jeep at 24

Seems about right, I pay just over £700 for an ST220 with 3yrs NCB at 21. Probably down to location.

Nice buy, dealers are great to deal with at the minute as they are desperate for sales.

Not a fan of these at all tbh, looka bit chubby, much prefer the 350z. Still, enjoy it and try not to bin it

That is with Adrian Flux, ngb or something is the underlying broker I think.
