Advertised at £3800, but in the ad says "I paid £4200 for the car the least i am willing to take is £3600"

I never understand why people ask for one amount, but then disclose that they're prepared to accept a lesser amount :huh:

probally a guilt reaction for trying to make a huge profit ;)
always rings alarm bells to me, he has bought to try and sell on at a well marked up price!
must have bought that for £2500 tops and trying to make £1100 on it but trying to convince the buyer he is taking a £600 loss.
should have done his homework first on how much they go for ;)

The 0-60 probably isn't far off for the S, but I've never found anything written about it by anyone official.

If you do the thoretical 0-60 calculator (lots on the internet already) it comes out around that and those things are generally around the right sort of mark for the day to day figures.
