5. Spoiler (actually didn't really find much on this so a little worried its not so common a fault)

The asking for this 04 with 95K is $4,600 with current conversion rates from Euro! I'm feeling that this is high mileage after a read around the forum. I see a black one down the country with 65K for $6,100, and a roadster 04 with 35K for $9,250. There are also a few coupes around that price and even one with the asking as high as $19,750 (04 and 45K)!

I generally feel the cheaper ones are less representative of the car but more so of there being zero market here for them. They are just not selling. But if I bought this cheap matt black one and gave it away in two years I reckon I'd still be smiling, although noteworthy is that I will have spent the same money as the car cost in two year's road tax!!!
