Default 2005 Connoisseur for sale on Gumtree

Spotted this. Nothing to do with me, not in the market for a saloon. However a lowish mileage, top specification, tourer would be a different matter.

Bargain...It could be something simple like a duff plug or lead.......and the front bumper is well worth the asking price

Now I like that, sort the scrape and scratch, etc, as said bumper is worth that price.


Not a 5 minute drive for viewing though.

Have a sniff at the ECM, I bet it's the cause of the misfire
