General Thinking of buying a bravo... Good Deal?

[Almurray42]

Hi Guys;

A friend of mine has offered to sell me his 1.4 T-Jet Bravo, 57 plate with 94k Miles on the clock... Black with good condition bodywork, He wants £1700, reckon it's worth it or will it lose value rapidly when i reach 100k because of the petrol engine? What do people think?

Cheers
Al

Does it come with full service history Including MOT? Is it HPI Clear ?

How long is MOT & TAX?

Those play are large impact of the price of the Car.

It's only £1700 and you're still wondering if it's a good buy?

I just bought a Computer that costs that much.

It's incredibly cheap... put another 50 k miles on it and sell it for a profit.
The t-jet is a great engine.
It's a good buy as long as there aren't any bad faults with the engine and the body work is in good order.

I've only had my bravo for 7 weeks (my previous car was a Stilo) and I have to say its a fantastic car I thought by now the honeymoon period would be over and it would just be another hum-drum car but it's not at all. They represent fantastic value for money and the T-jet engine is great (very tunable should you want to go down that route). Go for it

As above and check when the last cam belt and water pump change was done

And just a general rule, don't buy from friends

Thanks all, water pump and cambelt were done last year, it's got a full service history from new up to 2012 then no stamps but services have been done... 8 months mot and tax is fairly cheap! Think I might go for it!

Tax is irrelevant now. You can't sell a car with tax on.
