My car It's Ordered

dorsetlad · 9th May 2008, 15:07

Just put down my deposit on a Galaxy Grey 2.2 EX with Leather and Glass Sunroof.

Its a 2007 on a 57 plate with 6k on the clock

In total its £16,600

Any thoughts on this price

It comes with 2 years free Honda Servicing

Well done! Sounds like a very good deal to me. I looked at how much a 2.2 EX spec'd would be and isn't it somewhere near 22/23K?

So when do you pick it up?

dorsetlad · 9th May 2008, 15:15

It will be at the dealers in around 10 days from now

Looking forwards to getting it as was offered an ES for 16k with leather but felt the extra was worth it to upgrade

Are you old enough to have a Galaxy Grey.
At 41, I believe I'm the youngest person with one.

On the positive, Galaxy Grey takes ages to get dirty enough to need a wash.
Had mine 21 weeks (11,000 miles) and it's only been washed once.

i'm only 30 but v refined

I was just about to say i'm sure there are a few younger than 41 with Galaxy Grey and now I think Dorsetlad is the youngest!

Excellent, you're going to massively bring the average age down!

Good price. I'm getting a 2.2 EX for £15,750 and it has no extras. That's a 57 plate in Milano.

Well at least its been well maintained and i'm sure its probably been put through its paces a bit. I can think of worse people to have owned a car!

Hope your enjoying it

HappyMan · 25th May 2008, 09:23

Great! Maintained by the Honda F1 team - can't be bad

I have! And well doesn't everyone that buys new, especially when the model is just out, technically? As for second hand I feel much better about buying a car i've not see from a dealer who specialises in that make of car. Happens with the local bm dealer near me all the time, even driven 300 miles for a car i'd not seen but I wouldn't buy a car i've not seen from Arnold Clark. Guy at work has done that three times and each one as been a state! Latest one scratched, smashed rear lights and bald tyres.

Nope, Didnt see it, just put my faith in the dealer... Horizon Honda Christchurch.

No probs so far tho struggling to get it over 35 MPG, its done 5k

Have you reset the b trip at all? If its not been reset then you'll not be getting your mpg, but the mpg since it was last tripped which might turn out to have been never. So it'll be a bit of yours and a lot of the F1 team who have probably been horsing it
