Pics, details, Service history, Etc?

Went to look at one recently for R160k, High Auto 2013 in White, was sold by the time I got there.
 
I can send it in private but have a trade in offer for R220 000
I only started looking but I believe it's worth more.
 
maybe I should take it, just had a quick look on auto trader and the prices are higher.

That's a good offer. I got the same on a 2013 High manual, 6 years ago, with half the mileage.

With that said, having owned a manual, I can't picture driving this car as an auto, and I'm not alone. The demand isn't there. Take the offer before it's gone...

Sell it. Bought mine in 2014 and sold it in 2017 for the same. One of my better financial investments lol.

As mentioned the auto’s aren’t as desired so it’s a great offer
 
I also wonder if I shouldn't keep it as it seems to maintain its value.
Ws just looking at something a bit bigger though

I wouldn’t but yeah. You can get a M135i for 400k or a decent Golf 7.5 for around the same. More space and a decent performer and you already have half the money available after 12 years.
 
Thrills without the bills: the Toyota GT86

Like an Aston Martin! Only much, much cheaper! And without a massive V8!

What is it?

A front engined, rear wheel drive coupe. Much like an Aston Vantage. Both are immense fun to drive. But one doesn’t cost an arm and leg to buy and insure.

Why are we interested?

Essentially you’ve got a similar recipe, but the GT86 has half the cylinders, nearly a third the power and two thirds the weight.

So... it’s the same but not?

It is. But a new V8 Vantage is £165k. A really nice GT86 can be had for sub-£15k. And you’ll get more driving thrills.

What should I buy?

The GT86s were all 2.0-litre boxers, so there’s just trim choices and condition. We’d look for a 2013 version with under 60k miles on the clock.

 
so, i ended getting another car without a trade-in assistance.
If anyone is looking for an 86 , 2013 auto high. please pm me.
