2007 Orange 80,000k's stock Semi Auto. long rego.. Owner family man had baby seat in back.

2006 Orange 130,000k's 20"wheels prof lowered, Semi auto.. one month rego.. Has twin Exhaust but dont know what sort. Owner Sales rep.

All wanting same price.. Manual $500 more.

Any help or thoughts would be appreciated..

Thanks.

if you go manual, you will fork out 2k on a new clutch if its stock in the near future.. id opt for the low km's aswell.. what are they worth anyway?? around the 20k mark?

how bad do you want manual? I like manual.... always had manual (until this VE, which is auto). havent looked back. if you got kids in the back or will otherwise be doing a lot of driving (especially city stop start), go the auto.

also, black is a pain to keep clean.

50,000km is a lot of extra driving, so I'd go for the 80,000km family man car.

Second one, family man's car, low km's, +50k is a lot more, and as he got a baby, surely he will be driving the car carefully..no rash driving

Second one for sure. Less likely to be thrashed, lower K's and probably a better investment IMHO

2007 Ve Sv6.
Hi All,
Firstly; Wow and thank you for all of your response's.. It is great to see you have some where for help. As buying a car is a big deal, even if it only for a few $..

I have had a phone call back to see a 2007 Manual, Orange( yes Ignitionsv6 My family is with you on the colour), 90k's, for 20k.. Teacher no Kids..

$500 more than the Black 2007 Manual..

Monday is coming up fast.. will let you know of any other offer's...

@UFO.. I was looking forward to having the semi auto.. Lazy day drives in auto to Passing lazy day drivers using manual to get to kids Sport... haha.. Girlfriend wants manual.. and she better looking than the car.. haha.. But ends up all about the $ to K's ratio..
