Thanks again for all the help - I'll keep looking

Hi Jake,

Thanks for the heads up - it's certainly a nice looking car, very good price too, but I'd be after something lower mileage, and manual. Great spec though.

What a disappointment. Went up North over the weekend to have a look at a car that had come up. Racing Green, 43k miles, Sandtone Beige Interior, Sat Nav, 2.5L V6 Manual, and a wooden steering wheel. Looked amazing in the pictures. When we got there?

The front bumper had two large scuffs on either side, and there was chipped paint on the driver side door. That's fairly minor. But the seats?

The colour had completely rubbed off the front right side of the driver's side seat, and the leather had worn through. There were tears in the seat and the back part of the chair, near the airbag label, and on the back seat, the leather had been chewed up on the middle seat, like someone had scraped a zip across it.

Disappointed, we head home, and I check online today to look at the pics, and see how they managed to hide its problems on the site, only to find it's gone, and I guess they sold it. Colour me disappointed, anyway.

Has anyone decided they fancy selling their similarly-specced and in the same colour as the above pride and joy on, and would be willing to let me make them an offer?

Why mess with a gearlever and clutch? Auto's are far nicer to drive...

Some would say a BMW is nicer to drive. I don't want a BMW either This was a manual, anyway, but in **** condition. The auto's still available, but I took the advice of the forum and decided to keep looking for a manual

I've got a 34k (with FRSH) 75 Conn. SE 2.5 AUTO for sale if thats of any interest to you? I can bring it to the Pride of Longbridge if you are definitely interested.

Reg number SA02 WXX. Taxed until 311st July. Just the 1 private owner from new. Very nice, very genuine car. The private plate that was taken off must be worth a good £25k.

Email or PM me for more details or my mobile number.

Incidently, I'm after a Tourer myself as I've now got an Airedale Terrier. My mother in law had a lovely tourer which she part exchanged in Stourbridge a few years back. We bought it from the Birmingham Motorshow, actually did the deal on the stand. VK52 RYR if anyone on here has it!
