Offline | £2.5k  Not bad at all. I certainly wouldn't pay £16k for a s/hand MINI, let alone the £17-17.5k the dealer will sell it for  MINI, RX8 and MX5 - Done those............. It's now TTime  Unofficial MINI2.com bean counter |

Offline | Welcome to Zafira2.com. To be honest I'm wouldn't buy a Zafira again. Depreciation, centre rear seats are too upright, 3rd row seats are tiny, spare wheel gets stolen by Astra drivers. I'd go for something like a C-Max TDCi.BTW. Congrats Jimbo. There is just one moon and one golden sun; And a smile mean friendship to ev'ryone; Through the mountains divide, and the oceans are wide; It's a small world after all. |

Offline | Interesting comments - thanks TBH I'm still not sure I can seriously consider it. WhatCar seemed to think depreciation wasn't too bad as lots of demand for them. It's such an generic shape I struggled to find one to look at on the road today Maybe I'd be better off with an old 3 series estate...  |

| AWOL  | Well.... as i've not been involved in this thread a great deal, but now I have the urge to change my S..... I have this urge either to go for a works kitted S, with the new seats, will switch my 18's from my current S.... or something totally different But what colour if it was another Mini ?..... I love the EB/W I have, and have thought about all Black with chrome pack.... but what about CR/W ?.... or PS/W (not seen many of these).... decisions decisions.... or even wait for any new colours ?.... Or I could just go the other way.... 5 year old Boxster, M3 Evo.... even saw an Impreza P1 with 30k on the clock for 18k recently.... |
