do not but the selespeed

Thanks for that. I've just today put a deposit on a 1-owner '99 manual!

This car actually could be called immaculate, unlike the others I looked at that claimed to be. I was more hoping for a 00/01 but I couldn't go past this one. Complete service history including in-between services.. still had every receipt since new, even the one with the original price (about $51k). 120K's on the clock but feels like a 100K car. I can tell the owner is very particular.. everything looks like new including the seats (velour.. probably would have preferred leather, but you can't have everything).

Happy chappy for now.. will see how the roadworthy goes tomorrow. If all goes well I could be driving it by tomorrow arvo 

Thanks. Picked it up less than 24 h from placing a deposit  RWC, from Robert Lane Brighton, showed absolutely nothing so it was a quick affair! Thanks for people's help.

Yes I checked out 6, and I'm glad I did. Definitely worth the effort traipsing all over the place, even if I did end up buying 10 minutes from home!

And anyone buying a car right now, of any kind, there's much bargaining to be had! Private or dealer, it's a buyer's market. I did insult one seller with my (realistic) offer though! 

I shall post some pictures soon, and see about when I can join the club.
