On a personal note, i just dont like silver cars!

I'm obviously just a cautious cat. The marks are off a washing line! And its just the shadow.

Will be viewing on Saturday anyway. Here's hoping it's as good as it looks in the photos.

Ah you just haven't experienced any other colour yet, that's the problem. It just never shows up as well as other colours when you clean it up, sure that's why MetzgerMeister changed cars!

It could be worse, it could be black!

I don't like something about that silver coupe. It was for sale when I was looking with all the m sport trim on it.

**delly** · 26-04-2012, 01:14

I think that its just the shadows from the top of the bush behind.

/EDIT missed the 5th page, already cleared up.

I don't know the car, I don't know the seller but it's strange to have an add that detailed mentioning all the history and the car is stunning but it's due an NCT next month.

It seems a bit of a WTF to me.

Cheeky bugger

If you like that silver one in all fairness, it looks like a decent buy. Just remember you'll be looking at it every day so get one that makes you smile, colour included

Ardennes1944 · 26-04-2012, 01:53

Without wanting to drag this whole colour thing on (

). Silber is a colour for people with no personality

Indeed. I made it clear to the seller that it was a no go without the nct and that I wouldn't purchase without a new nct.

Thanks for all the responses lads, I honestly don't know what I'd be doing if I didn't have all this advice from yee lot!

**delly** · 26-04-2012, 09:24

I think we should base the next meet on you going to view some possible purchases. A dozen fellas (and one or two girls) turn up to some house in an estate, double parking all over the place, and we all have a good nose over the car. I dunno what the seller would think.

You're well able to find yourself the right car and present it to your mechanic for a quick look over before you parts with your monies

The only thing you needed us for was to convince you not to buy a Toyota Corolla
