So I am looking at a VF now, my SV6 is dying... If you had around $30k

How has the cruise knob and the leather bolster on drivers side been destroyed in 34k? Maybe a bargaining point for you with the dealer for a discount.

This was my thought!

And well I was being pretty strict on myself to go between 30-35, this 38 is stretching it but only cos it's so much lower km's than all others for sale and it's red Red is my top choice.
Oh and it's located down the road, so I can just go get it easily enough lol

It's a $38k ask, surely you'd be getting it for well under your $35k limit?

Not intending to burst your bubble, but keep this in mind when negotiating for that car; people are paying $55k for new LS3 Redlines, drive-away. New SSV's have a list-price $6k less, and I don't think I'm BS'ing to say they're not as popular, so I don't think $49k for a new SSV is unreasonable. And that's an LS3 car.

Now we're all somewhat enthusiastic about or VF's around here (some of us without Holden backgrounds find ourselves a little surprised about that ), but cars do still depreciate out there in the real world ... and you'd expect to lose at least a third in that first year, especially in a class of car which is reducing in popularity. And the car you're looking at is nearly three years old.

Haggle hard, my friend, haggle hard!

Oh I agree. I haven't sat down with the sales person yet, just doing the initial run arounds etc. So I will certainly be haggling hard haha.
