Anyways my father in law gave me a proposition today that if I sell my 406 for at least £400, I can have his D8 for that
Here it is
Its a 2 litre petrol LX, exackly same spec as mine, apart from mine has aircon with manual mirrors and his has no aircon with leccy mirrors
Bodywork is genarally good with only 1 rust scab the size of a £2 coin on one sill and what looks like an area of bubbling underneath the sill, and a small crack in the corner of the front bumper, mechanically it's sound, slightly less milege than mine (140k), same model, same age, same test, slightly shorter tax, new tyres all round which have done less than 1000 miles, full new exhaust, top end JVC head unit
Mine needs 4 new tyres, a new centre exhaust, bottom engine mount is nackered and most of all it has intermittant running problems, 1 day its fine, the next its not. Bodywork wise mine is in about the same condition, however mine has no rust at all anywhere
It drives much nicer than mine, feels tight with lighter power steering and a much more smoother positive clutch, mines all soft and lurches around and sits lower almost like my shocks have had it
Obviously mine in the 7 seat version, so I would be swapping that over if I decide to do it, but I really don't know as I have a love/hate relationship with mine and kinda got use to it', faults and all
Any advice, whad'ya reckon chaps, ye or ne
