Do you think this new addition to auto trader is worth the asking price?

Re: Another Great G

Looks pretty straight...Leather a nice option.

Asking what you would expect...from a dealer. Check that FULL service history....its top end money...so should have top end receipts.

Re: Another Great G

Hi Not in the present market conditions..the dealer does not know the vehicle (JEEP) indeed!!! it does not have an adjustable steering column.it does not have armrests on the front seats...it is manual. (less desirable than auto ==so cheaper) you need to see all the invoices supporting the service history book "which only tells you what oil was put in it" and all the mot's to help verify the mileage..at the price asked EVERYTHING should work properly aircon. difflocks. sunshine roof.abs. all the instrument lighting ..no wear in the windscreen wiper spindles.no worn front wheel bearings.. chances are the seller will not have checked these things and the price you offer should reflect what you find....very few pics is not a good sign...he is not showing the "BAD BIT" areas .....

Re: Another Great G

It's not dissimilar to the one with the 606 engine in that I looked at recently but is priced more realistically. However, it's still top end so needs to reflect that. Also, bear in mind that this dealer probably doesn't offer much more than a private sale would.

Re: Another Great G

Hi further research reveals that it has had 5 owners.. has no sunroof no heated seats and no climate control. "aircon and leather a bonus" the aircon has not been checked.. probably still on R12 refrigerant and will need changed to R134 (about GBP 300) neither have the difflocks....seller is working from mobile phone and gives no address...G' was first registered in December 1991 in Birmingham....GBP 7000 would be too much if any major items to repair.....
