Must be a reason...maybe he thinks that the yellow isn't as desirable It is true for most cars...if both were 20v[6], the grey would probably get more interest?

I'm just jesting (hint : look what model and colour car I have).
The only reason I can think of is the kudos of the later plate.
Up yours Photobucket.

I dont! Its a yellow plus, you wont get another chance Vicks If it was at Wimbledon Carriage company, I would have bought it by now...but it's not. All in all, I have made the sensible choice - my reasons for wanting it were totally daft...sense will prevail and my next car will be...

i just went for it now and some one has taken it for a test drive,phone back in 30 min, If this hasn't already sold, here's some more information. Full Dealer Service History. Belts haven't been done yet but will be at screen price. No stereo but a Panasonic multichanger is available at extra cost. Drivers door resprayed due to car park dings. One lady owner. I live literally round the corner from this so imagine what I'm going through knowing this is for sale and I can't afford it (unless I get a straight swap )

Right, ive just spoken to someone about them viewing my coop, they went and saw this "special" car the other day and apparently its far from being all that!
One side has pretty much been resprayed, but with a slightly off match yellow, to the point where theres orangey areas. The drivers door is covered in car park dints, not your average amount but more. The engine bay is in deed mint, but to be fair cant most be with some elbow greese etc. The owner wouldnt budge the price even when these issues were raised, with the only compromise being that he would sort cambelt prior to sale.

It's really not a bad price!! It's only had paint as it had carpark dings - they touch up all their cars as needed according to the guy I spoke to

Nice motor, notice the driver's side sill skirt has been squished, the same as mine - wonder if these can be straightened out easily or not ? On mine someone has jacked the sill skirt & bent the mounting, causing the skirt to deform. Seem to recall the press photos when the LE was launched with the squished skirts on one side
