What to look for?

squizzlejizzle · 03-01-2009, 06:26 PM

Hi all

I was looking at getting an SG CSL early last year but due to a change in circumstance, had to put it on hold. Now however, the wife has said I can have one

so the hunt is back on.

Can people give me some pointers on what to look for. Ideally, as the wife will be the main driver, its an SG with Xenons, Climate and CD/RDS (these are must haves). Any ideas on what sort of money I should pay as the prices are wildly variable. 30K miles max with a FSH and it has to be a minter.

Any tips from peoples experiences would be good. Hopefully within 3 months we'll have one. Shame I live in Qatar which means I won't get to drive it much

Cheers

Matt

The buyers giude in the main message centre should give you all the pointers you need mate.

There is also a wide range of knowledge on here, so if there anything you need just ask!!!

Cheers, I've read the guide on the main page, just curious if there was anything else thats not mentioned in there that peeps might have come across.

S&B - Don't know about Garveys, but yeah Rydges has closed. The Aussie bar was great, some rather nice ladies went in there and the pool was good fun. Now we have nowhere with a pool table and the Irish Bar is bloody pricey. Weather is good too
