In the market for an F-Type..... advice needed
- Thread starter gc301
- Start date
I'm going to view a couple of cars this weekend at a couple of dealerships, with a view to hopefully putting a deposit down either on the day or not long after as I'll then be out of the country for a week or so (I don't want to miss the boat on the used car market swinging back up and then I'm priced out - I know it's not going to change overnight but no one has a crystal ball).
I'm viewing: https://www.autotrader.co.uk/car-de...tion=at_cars&sort=relevance&postcode=SE16 7EN (the higher priced white R AWD one, one of you already checked out the history on it the other day thank you)
and
https://www.autotrader.co.uk/car-de...tion=at_cars&sort=relevance&postcode=SE16 7EN (lower priced white R AWD, looks a bit more worn in the photos and I want to see what it's like in person) This dealership also has a red R RWD for sale, I 99% set on getting an AWD but just wanted to also see / test an RWD, + see if things like the old infotainment and sticky interior buttons are a turn-off https://www.autotrader.co.uk/car-de...tion=at_cars&sort=relevance&postcode=SE16 7EN
A black AWD R listing went live yesterday, much more reasonably priced at just under 34k https://www.autotrader.co.uk/car-de...ius=1500&advertising-location=at_cars&fromsra ........ Now I've not been looking at black examples or darker colours in general as from pictures at least I feel like the pretty lines and angles of the F-Type aren't as obvious, has someone owned / seen any black R's in person to know if it actually looks a lot better in the flesh? Because if so I can definitely be tempted for a purchase thats £6k under that white one I want.
Cheers

They can probably refuse but it would cost them a sale (they would always have to tell you at some point so you can get the insurance and tax). Unless there is something dodgy in the cars past, they would have no reason to refuse, and if there is something dodgy you wouldn't want it anyway.
If it's local to you, you can easily just walk up and get the VIN off the windscreen in the position shown below.

Yep, it certainly is a brute when it comes to acceleration. I'm fairly sure I know which one you went for and look forward to seeing some more photos. Enjoy man!
