Hi Russ, I'm not sure yet. He spotted that paint on the wing straight away. He's trying to knock me a bit for it, I will give a little. If he takes it I can start my search properly.

Car looked great by the way.

good luck with the sale mate, if he starts to barter too much just tell him you will get the wing polished to a degree of acceptability.

20inch alloys are not a factory option are they?

Hi Jason,

That is a stunning looking car (yes I'm biased too!) and I'd agree with Adams RS that there should be some haggling room in the price. That car has been on the market since before Christmas at that same price, so you should be able to get them to drop it.

As DK has already confirmed, those wheels were a factory option (approx £2k IIRC!) - only things I would say is that those on the TT forum who have driven the RS on 20's say the ride is very harsh, and new tyres are even more expensive than the 19's. Still, you may find the ride is not that bad once you test drive it.

Good luck anyway!

Hi all,

Anyone looking for a mint TTRS don't bother looking at the sepang blue at Silverbrooks Brighton. It's not that good at all, marks all over it and alloys are battered. Doesn't look like a 10000 mile car to me. Stealer will tell you it's mint, it was a long drive for me to find otherwise.

Jay.

That's a shame Jay...that's a long round to find that out. Why do dealers insist on describing a car as 'mint' when they're often not? Time wasters! :bash:

I know Sevy. It was a bit of a dog too, shame when original invoice stated £55k. I'm positive it's well over 10000 miles or had a hard life.

Still looking so if you see or hear anything please let me know. Would prefer Suzuka or Daytona as have just sold R32 in deep blue pearl.

Keep hunting.

Yeah no worries - I'll keep an eye out on the TT forum etc and drop you a line if anything suitable comes up...

Good luck with the search...
