I just sold my car and now have the cash in my hot little hand

the only real thing I am picky on is it has to be a manual and not that green colour

I was wondering if any of u would have any advise on what to look out for while trying to buy

and help will be greatly appreciated

A big welcome to you will-82. Glad to hear your buying a T im sure you wont regret it.

My wife and I have one each and we both love driving them. the guys on here will give you good advice but they will need to know if your going to buy new or used and what you intend to do with it, such as modify it, tow with it or just injoy it. The MkII has the 6 speed and stronger clutch . Best of luck im sure the guys will give you all the info you will need.

Cheers BRI BRI.

Get an auto..... Simple..... And make plans to keep it for only 2 years cause if you hang around here you will want to get the best out of it which I might add is about 300 kw at the wheels......

You have made and excellent dicision to get a T however make sure the colour is Mercury Silver cause they are the best and will hold the greatest resale value because there owners are people of discerning quality.....

You should talk to Peter at APS and find out if they mod the cluch in the series 1 when they do the different mods because the clutches dont like the extra power. Anyway do yourself a favour, have a test drive of an auto they do have some advantages. You will have a lot of fun thrashing a demo.

yeah I guess I will take a auto for a drive as well and just see what happens

they do have the advantage of being cheaper in the 2nd hand market wich can only save me money

Hey Scott, surely the guy would like his new car to be painted. Anything other than undercoat would be a good choice.

Hi

I guess one thing to look for is the Average litres/100klms on the trip computer. It is a long time average and can't be faked. Mine on average is round 14.5 lts/100klms. That is with the occassional blat around town.

So if it has 18 litres/100klms and the guy is telling you that he only drives it to the shops and to church on sundays....I'd think again

I'm talking a standard (2003...38000klm) T with just CAI.

Hope this helps.

Cheers
