Hi mate.I think the best suggestion would be to go and see/drive them all,and go from there.I think the 103K car is sold though(Luke is that one yours?)
Good luck with the hunt and i hope you get a nice one.

Cheers,

Ivor.

I think if you want a good 3.2 you need to up your budget.

Do not judge the cars you see against mine as otherwise you'll set yourself up for a dissapointement.

Good luck on your search.

Its the 3.0 but they dont come much cleaner than this one, with good history and couple of subtle mods too. Low miles so ideal if going to be a daily. Recent new belts and clutch.

Apparently the owners quite a nice bloke too ;)

I hope the car is a good one mate and you have plenty of years of trouble free motoring.HOWEVER,that is a suspiciously low priced car.Maybe the seller wants a quick sale or doesn't know the value,but accident free, clean examples are usually priced higher than this.
Hopefully i'm wrong and you have bagged a bargain.Good luck anyway.

Cheers,

Ivor.

Pande's old car?

Hi Guy's & Girls

Does anyone have any suggestion why my car isn't selling? Is it because of the distance, Jaguar or the red interior?

My 3.2 has done almost 40k less & has has a warranty! Did this car not have issues in the past? ( I could be wrong)

I also can't believe the red 3.0 manual at 18.5k hasn't sold yet. I have a flat up for sale so hopefully I might not need to sell.

[simonprelude]

I'm not really sure, unless the market isn't prepared to pay the price.
Cheaper cars seem to be selling so there must be buyers out there.
If I was looking it would be on my back up list due to the distance, but if I really wanted one then flights are cheap so ??

The Jaguar history might put me off slightly, but it probably hasn't been treated any worse than mine or any other press / test car.

The market for NSX's is odd at the best of times, but especially so at the moment.

A very limited supply of cars, particularly good ones, with a (hopefully!) similarly small number of prospective buyers.

If the silver car here is Pande's old car, then that would explain the low price it was advertised at.

I would have said that your car is well prices and attractive in many ways - silver, low miles, warranty. the red interior possibly limits the market, though for me it would be a + (I had a Silverstone S2000 with a red interior & much prefered it to the 'black hole of Calcutta' alternative!

I think a combination of a difficult financial market & the location of your car are currently the main factors infulencing its non-sale.

The price seems reasonable to me, but the fact that it hasn't sold suggests the market thinks otherwise!

[Driver Matt]

What am I missing ?
Was this car trashed ?
It looks very clean.
I assumed the low price was a need to sell and a slightly higher mileage.

Can you elaborate on this please,i'm ignorant of the history of the car.

I do not know for sure that this is Pande's old car.

I believe that Pande's car had an accident of some sort (though I do not know this first-hand) However Pande's car has certainly had a full re-spray - a search of Pande's old posts here will confirm that.

I would suggest contacting one of its recent owners, registered here (reg or Andys2k) for a 1st hand account of the car.

I did advised him to be cautious with NSX purchases.
