It’s a very tidy 99 T plate Honda Civic, its been the second car for the last eight years from nearly new, only done 66K. new exhaust and timing belt done as I had to go down south last year and needed it spot on.

Every dealer just thinks you can magic up extra Money, it’s a set budget and as I said there expensive for what is a small car to begin with. Dealer has to come to me rather than me add more money

BMW Irvine offered me £800.
Honda offered me £1400 on a new Civic.
Secondry plan is drop the D and go to the normal Cooper with the price drop that comes with that.

So as it stands if they offerd the same as Irvine there is a short fall off £700. Although Irvine did drop the price by £400 and offer TLC. Final deal came down to £15200 Plus trade-in but as I said the car just did not hit the spot, and there is no point spending 16K on a car I can certainly say is new but not close to the one I like.

Seemingly dealers don’t get the whole personal taste thing…Secondry plan is drop the D and go to the normal Cooper with the price drop that comes with that. …
