It's just a little too thirsty for me. I thought my T5 was bad enough but this drinks even more and fuel's on the rise again.

So your car is too expensive to run but you can afford to drop the price by £1350! Quick man maths, average 20mpg/1.14 per litre/£1350 thats 13k miles worth of fuel/driving you are giving away!

If wrong, I accept no responsibility for crappy maths :-)

ste mc · Jul 21st, 2017, 20:15

Also selling it elsewhere for £3150

Bargain then you genius, imagine the places you could visit in complete comfort. I'm surprised you haven't made an offer.

Give the man a chance to sell his car. There must still be a market for these things

']So your car is too expensive to run but you can afford to drop the price by £1350! Quick man maths, average 20mpg/1.14 per litre/£1350 thats 13k miles worth of fuel/driving you are giving away!'

Actually:
(£1350/(£1.14 x 4.55 liters per gallon)) = 260.266 gallons x 20mpg = 5205 miles plus much higher insurance, tax, tyres, servicing etc so not such as daft proposition to sell. If reducing costs is the objective then seems a reasonable proposition to me. It sounds a lot of car for around £3k.....good luck with the sale; I hope you get what you want for it..... If wrong - I do accept responsibility for getting my facts wrong.....
