Nice being a manual but I think I'd put a new tyre on rather than highlight a chunk missing out of the sidewall

I like that. Why do these cars always seem appear at the wrong and inappropriate time?

 

[Nassau65]

Sod’s Law me thinks

All 2014 & 15 Bauer Millett supplied UK cars are/were manuals. I didn't ask, but suspect the car still has the original tyres on it at that mileage?

Tires look dried out so would have to add the cost of new tires, maybe replace the TPMS and wheel balance
And the rims are chipped up
Also looks like at the least the brake rotors need replacing

Wrong time for any number of reasons

That's a very nice car, well priced and really good ad. Great that he's called out the marks etc very obviously. Very tempting.

 

[Roscobbc]

A little bit of money to spend on replacing out-dated and (according to mot reports, nail damaged tyres), perhaps discs and potentially a really great car. Being a UK supplied 'new' vehicle it'll be UKPLC 'full-wack' £760 annual car tax I believe!
Still, gotta be better than the £5k+ annual road tax for a post April '25 official UK supplied C8 I guess?

That's the Ist year road tax included in the list price of the car. After that it will be the "full whack" £760 (?) pa for cars over 255mg (?) emissions I think (without checking the figures)?

Wow, that serious road tax. I was looking at a 2012 Mercedes e class estate AMG the other month, was put off by the road tax. I remember buying cars for the same amount

I recall buying cars 'in the day' for less than than todays price for two gallons of Shell, Esso or BP's 'finest'!

I'll double check figures later

 

[Nassau65]

Never having paid these high road tax prices it is a bit frightening. Obviously once in the game and your used to it, it’s just normal.

Compared to the old system it's £1 a day extra hardly a worry if you have a corvette imo
