Quite tempted...
To look at this. Looks mint and very low mileage... a rarity nowadays.
Also this but a little expensive for the age....

Re: Quite tempted...
I wouldn't bother with the coupe. Very overpriced & I have seen the coupe guys talking about it. Steering wheel looks very shiny for the mileage, passenger mirror cover is taped on & one of them phoned about it & the seller was properly ignorant.
If you fancy a coupe, I have seen a couple of low mileage HDi coupes popping up a bit cheaper than that.
As far as the GTX goes, not too sure. The Hoggars look good & that's definitely a retrofit leather interior as it's the old smooth style & not the ribbed - although I have to admit I prefer the smooth leather. If it hasn't had the wiring bodged, I reckon that GTX looks good. Don't think of it as expensive for the year, but more like a good price for the miles.
Has something happened to your Exec that has you looking elsewhere?

Re: Quite tempted...
Nope, mine is still smoking its way up and down the M5 (the motorway that is, not the BMW....)
My mum is looking for a car, so I've been browsing for something for her sub 4k mark and these just happened to pop up

Re: Quite tempted...
A year?! Must be a real lemon..... I noticed the passenger seat has some plastic shroud missing at the bottom in the 2nd pic.

Re: Quite tempted...
How can you have such cheap cars, I envy you. That one looks mint and extremely low mileage for the money. I've never seen a 406 with that mileage less than 4500£ here. And those were 1.8 and 2.0 petrol.waue1978 wrote: As far as the GTX goes, not too sure.

That is D8 leahter? I thought swapping D8 and D9 leahter interiors was pretty difficult?
