Newbie here hoping to get a VXT in the near future, currently trying to sell my Westfield, but have done the cardinal sin of looking before I have sold! Assuming I can find somewhere to garage a second car, if the right one comes up then I could be in a position to buy. Have seen a couple that I like, and was wondering if anyone knew of them? First is a yellow VXT, which they seem to think is a VXR, MM03 YXT http://www.autotrade...s/200?logcode=p and the second, in my perfect colour combo is a Red VXT, KE53 DPZ http://www.bullittca...vertible Petrol

Both are a bit over my budget, but figured they might be open to some haggling this time of year!

Have you tried the regs in the search engine? The second one has power steering which is a bonus!! (Bloody tick box traders)

Is the yellow one on pistonheads too? If it is its been for sale for a while now

[.Adam.]

Yeah, I've put both reg numbers in the search, but nothing came up. Yes, the Yellow one is on PH, and it has been up for sale for a while, so don't know if that is a bad thing or not? Sort of figured that the time of year doesn't help, and that also it is at the higher end of what is available price wise.Looking at the pics, both cars seem to have had some mods that would suggest that they have been owned by an enthusiast, yellow one with a couple of interior bits, and the red one with the wheels and possible carbon air intakes.

As far as Im aware there was only ever one yellow VXR and that is owned by Mani and Im pretty sure he is not selling so it must be a VXT, Yellow VXT's are the best of any VX220 out there WAHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

I can second that,a sports car should be bright

You're both wrong, it's got to be moonland One thing we'll all agree on though is that it's got to be a turbo As for the two cars, i cant comment on either, but you should be able to push for a bargain this time of year, even more so the closer we get to christmas. Do some searching on the site and get out there viewing!!

[mbes2]

the yellow one says "1 of just 65 Turbo's" ..... few years time, this wont be far wrong...
Both look really good buys

Red one is missing rain cover for engine

I hadn't noticed that, seems like an odd thing to take off, or was it not a standard fitment?

[siztenboots]

not standard

[Lizy]

hello and welcome

Right, now I've sold my Westie, and the holidays are over, hoping to go and have my first serious viewing on Wednesday, going to see the Yellow VXT that I linked to in my original post, hoping that the the reason it has been for sale for a while isn't bad!

[.Adam.]

That's the car, although it's £250 cheaper on their website. It's a bit out of my budget, so hoping they might be able to move a bit on the price!

The wonky exhaust could be that it just needs undoing and tweaking, or could be signs of a rear end nudge. Other than a few marks it looks clean, arches look clean too, wheels look square, brakes look recent. As with all cars go in with your eyes wide open and expect to walk away.

I did notice the exhaust looked a bit wonky.
