Picking up my LCR on Thursday!! Good Deal??

[ggood]

Just put a deposit down on a grey 05 cupra R from a dealer for £14000 cash with 16k miles, do you think this is a good deal? I can't wait to pick it up on Thursday!

One thing that I am going to have to change on the car is the silver facia on the dash around the climate control and the cup holder - I think the previous ower changed it from the standard black, I have ordered the black part from seat only £21.00!

I have got to fit it myself and have been searching on the site for ages can anyone help with the fitting instructions?!

cheers

Gary

Sounds ok to me..... quite hi miles for a year old car.... although mine will have done 40000 miles by end of August....

Sounds good to me dude. Platinum is a lovely colour. You'll love the car.

cheers mate, its a may 05 so has got slightly high miles on the car but nothing to worry about - anyone got any instructions to change the silver dash?

Just to put it into perspective mate, I bought an 05 plate luna grey LCR with just under 5k ( registered March 05 )on the clock for 14k in march so it maybe a tad over priced but not much. Having said that youll love it trust me

that is cheap! parkers guide book price is loads more than 14k from a dealer! don't feel so happy now

Yeah twas a lucky find through autotrader ( Frosts in Brighton) dont sweat it mate its still alot of motor for 14k

tricky,

Based on £18,000 new price it seems ok.
But given that the LCR was widely available for £15,500 towards the end of its life it could be said to be over priced a bit.
But the LCR is holding its money well at the moment.

Depends how the new cupra is accepted when it comes out.

look on pabs's site to change it. i think it will shoe you, when he fitted his in car pc, but the other way around if you know what i mean

Given that a lot of Seat dealers are flogging 05 /55 LCRs for £16K + it seems a good deal. At the end of the day, if you're happy then that's what counts. There will always be someone who pays more, and someone else who pays less. Welcome to the gang!
