High Mileage TT - Worth It?

[Bigfub]

My other half doesn't drive huge distances so I was thinking that as she's always wanted one it might be a good idea to fulfil that dream.

Any way, I've come across a cheap mk1 with high motorway miles but fsh (18 stamps) new roof, roof motor etc, cam-belt + waterpump.

Would it be worth taking the gamble given that it's not huge sums of money?

Sounds like a good car .... well maintained, motorways miles (always better than round-town miles, I believe), lots of new parts.

Go for it !!!!

 

[Bigfub]

That's my thought too so will hopefully go and see it on Saturday ;)

[Trevor]

Let us know how you get on and pop up some piccies of it if you can 

[Bigfub]

Will do, must get some pics of my A8 up at some stage too ;)

[Trevor]

Would like to see that...thanks

[Bigfub]

Well, the TT isn't pristine but all the paperwork was present with 18 stamps in the book, a new hood and she drove perfectly.

Left a deposit on the basis that they get a new MOT :)

[Bigfub]

MOT'ed for 12 months and being delivered on Saturday as an early birthday present for my fiancee. 

Can't really complain at £1500 but she is definitely going to inflict some damage on me

Looks fantastic...all you need now is some sunshine  :-)

Enjoy !

I would too,i have a red one with red leather for sale but it has 150000 miles on,but serviced regularly, i think the service history is the most important 

[Trevor]

150000 miles...that's good mileage but as long as it has been maintained correctly it's not really an issue...good luck with the sale Wendy.
