Hi guys,
Currently finalising a deal with a main dealer. Price had been all agreed but it turns out the car doesn't have Sports diff, even though they said it did and its down on the spec sheet :-(.
I live in the country and have done a fair bit of sprint and hillclimb motorsport, so its an option i would probably notice. It also concerns me that its on most peoples wishlists and could affect resale value and ease of sale.
Retrofit doesnt sound like a cost effective option so they are going to come back to me with a possible discount. Sports diff is £620 in the book. It feels like i would actually be prepared to pay more for than this for a 2nd hand car with, rather than without. I doubt they are going to discount by the full £620 but i think thats what it will at least take to keep me in the sale.
It does have a few other options such as Super sports seats, active cruise, advance key, heated front and rear seats, lane departure, power tailgate and drive select, so fairly well specced car. Albeit not necessarily options i would have chosen ahead of some others.
Other issue i have with the car are the Magna red seats, ive yet to see them in the flesh and some of the pictures make them look a bit "halfords". What is the general consensus on this colour option?
Cheers,
Nick
