Goodbye to my C Class

After 3 months of ownership I have sold my C Class. The decision was easy to make as I am now only covering 4 miles a day. None of the Stealers were really interested in buying as they are all stocked up on all models so ended up selling privately.
It's been interesting reading and joining in on the forum.

I wish you all good look for the future.

Glad to see you found a buyer, its tough to move a new car with low miles. Doesn't help that the dealerships want nothing to do with this car right now.

Thanks guys. I am fed up seeing a £37000 car sat on the car park, so made the decision to sell and get something a little cheaper so have opted for the new VW Scirocco that is due out here in September even with a good spec have managed to save £7000. The Scirocco should give me a bit extra fun at the weekends.
It has been fun sometimes just reading the threads and watching the discussions expand.
Hope you all keep well.
I will drop by time to time if you don't mind.

All the best.

Tony

I love the new Scirocco. I really liked the old one too, before they were discontinued. Nice choice.

And I'm sure others will agree with me--of course you're welcome!

Good luck and godspeed.
