Aristo V300 JZS161 gauging interest......

hey guys

maybe looking to sell my Aristo V300 to fund some home improvements. No great rush to sell as I absolutely love it but at the end of the day its only a car and money talks !

i bought the car from a man in newcastle in october/september. it's only just been in the country for 12 months now. Drives amazingly. This car ticks alot of boxes for me. Its a nice roomy,large car. Not too loud so its nice for the family. Doesn't attract attention from the police . very rare in the u.k . Get good fuel economy from the autobox when cruising in town or on the motorway. and if you want it the power is most certainly there. The aristo will pin you in your seat from 0mph to ridiculous speeds if you've got the ball's to keep the throttle stuck to the floor. for a car that weigh's 1.6tonnes it can't half shift.

the car's located 40 miles from aberdeen but I'll be happy to pick someone up from aberdeen airport or train station if they want the car. Will even throw in a full tank of V-power for anyone travelling from a good distance away. (£60-£70)



Anyway here's the spec/info

I'm looking for offers over £7000 to persuade me to sell this car. again in no rush to sell so no daft offers.......may be open to part exchange as I'll need something to drive in the mean time but no crap and ultimately I'd be after as much cash in the sale as possible.

heres the pics from 6 months ago when I bought the car. It's still just as clean but I'll get some more recent pics up in the next few days when I'm home from the rigs.:thumbs:

I ended up keeping this car a little longer than expected. Couldnt bear to part with it. But now it really must go.

The spec is the same as above but the car now has

Front upper strut brace,
Two new rear tyres fitted
Yellow stuff front and rear brake pads
A set of TOM's rear subrame braces will be supplied with the car but not fitted.


Grab yourself a real wolf in sheep's clothing !! A very rare car with limited numbers in the u.k.

Price is still £7000 with 6 months tax thrown in
 
very nice, however youve got to be kidding on the price? think you should check just how much you can get hold of one on egay for these days.

perfectly good aristo vertex went for 2.5k a few weeks back
