It is with a lump in my throat that I announce:

For sale.

2001 (Y) Ralliart VR4 Estate. 26,000 miles, FMSH and Mitsy warranty until July. Taxed to the end of the year, first MOT due in July. I am the third owner, the first being the dealer.
Trigger Mauve estate, Roof bars, Recaro Interior, INVECS II tiptronic. For piccies see the members cars section. The car will be completely standard when sold.
£13,750 OVNO. NEW PRICE - £13,000

I do not intend this to be my last galant, and hopefully not my last VR4, but I can't afford the loan and running costs at the moment. Part ex will be considered on any galant estate, including older VR4's. No other p/ex will interest me.

Nick.

Keep telling yourself it's just a lump of metal with a wheel at each corner. :(

Sorry to hear you need to sell it, but what can you get for £14,000 nowadays?

I know.........something that's better on fuel and cheaper to insure...point taken ;)

Awwww, sorry to hear this Nick as I valued your advice/comments since I joined this forum.

Good luck in finding something half as interesting.

Oh well - You've been there and done that at least!

So, its back to the trusty V6-24....

Or, hang on a minute.... :undecided

After all the mickey taking, ending up with a GLS would be poetic justice, don't you think?!!! Mwahahahahah! ;)

Seriously though.... a PX against a nearly new 2.0 Classic or Equippe estate would be a good plan! VR-4 bodykit and interior, 2.0 running costs.... 9000mile service intervals and 30-35ish MPG!!! And you'd walk away with a few Ks in your back pocket for mods!!!

Thanks for the nice comments, guys. (Except Kieran!) Could take a while to sell, I guess, but hopefully will be back with another (cheaper) 8g soon after.

Someone give me some money!!

Sad news. Don't know if I'm really serious, but would there be any interest in a slightly older, lightly modded, newly cleaned one as a possible PX ?

lightly modded

understated as always!

:laugh:

Understated maybe but unfortunately definitely overweight. I've worked out my most cost effective upgrade is for me to lose some weight. :lipsrseal

Nick Mann

There would be interest. The only problem being I want to spend half on the next one as I owe on this one!

PM me if you are serious!

Anyone?

UK supplied - balance of Mitsy warranty. Got to be interesting to someone! I don't want to sell it, but I've got to.

Just noticed this thread now. Sorry to hear you have to sell her, I feel for you mate.

Only a few months ago I was going through the agonising thought of having to sell my own Legnum as I needed a 7 seater (4 kids :rolleyes5 ) but found a good cheap Discovery and now manage to run the 2, just !!

Hope things work out for you

Nice to see you stayed a part of the VR4 clan! Hope I can too. Just need to reduce monthly outgoings.

Not sure what will happen yet.

As none of you lot are making it easy and buying it, I have now paid to have it appear in Autotrader magazine. Might make it into Top Marques as well if I made the deadline.

Makes me grumpy that I have to pay to sell it, when I don't want to!

To try to tempt you into parting with your cash, I will now accept £13,000.

BOBBY BARGAIN!

Nick Mann

SOLD!

Not sure whether I am happy about it. Sorry to see it go.

I'm sure the new owner will be posting more and attending events, so I will see it again.

Now.... Anyone got a very cheap legnum they can give me?

enigma

Hoooray......I think!

Make sure you buy a new one!

Vicky and I will be car-sharing for the short term.....

Until the next VR4!
