I’m at 271 currently - I see the benefit of high kms is that I’m not afraid of adding more. Already done the depreciating, wear each km as a badge of honour.

Tad frustrating he didn’t want to disclose his asking price and only wanted “my best offer” for a 20 year old car personally I don’t put a lot of extra re-sell value on all of the options.

One of the better long haul drives I’ve ever done. I wonder if the seats in his are “gone”? daveyoul 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DT Posted 1February, 2020 Report Share Posted 1February, 2020 Yeah agreed, I’ve always found the seats comfortable for long trips and supportive enough for spirited road driving. Perhaps he’s got an undiagnosed back issue that these seats exacerbate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cars 15 years old, typically are not on WOVR. If the owner cash settled with the insurer again not on the WOVR. many cars of a certain value get cash settled and repaired Rod C 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
