WANTED: Petrol 406 Estate

[MilesS835]

Hi
I’m looking for a petrol 406 estate, 2.0L manual in China blue if possible, preferably either LX or GLX.

Petrol 406’s seem to be rare now and undesirable?

If anyone is looking to sell one this spec or similar please contact me,
Cheers.

Hello. Oddly enough I recently posted a link for one I saw just like that on ebay, it's a 7-seater with low miles too https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/163784830655?ul_noapp=true any good for you?

1.8 LX in Samarkand Blue any good to you? I've got one on eBay at this very moment
Cheers, Nick

I forgot I posted this , rather annoying as the 7 seater one would've been perfect!
Anyway, I'm going to look at a red '98 V6 GLX estate tomorrow. Hopefully all goes well and I end up with some V6 power!

Ooh, I'm curious...
V6 estates are hard to find - please let us know how you get on, and post a link up if you choose not to get it..

[MilesS835]

Will do mate, I'm looking forward to it, only done 118k as well!

[MilesS835]

Just a question if anyone sees this before I view the car.
What do you reckon a 98 v6 glx estate in non metallic red Would be worth. It’s done 118k and from the photos the interior looks ok, but as is typical the door card fabric is coming away. £800? More? Less?

[GingerMagic]

That seems fair to be honest.
Over the last few months, the prices have risen for old 406s, even poor quality ones are fetching £600, the lower mileage clean ones are nearer £1500...

[MilesS835]

Well, I got it.
I paid a little more than I'd have liked (£1150) but it might not have been too overpriced?
So it's done 119.5k miles and the engine pulls really strong! overtakes everything
The interior has cleaned up quite nicely, just the door card fabric coming away from the panel (fixable with glue?)
and as far as the exterior goes, there's a small dent on the front wing, car park ding on the rear door and a slight dent on the rear bumper.
Overall I think it's a really nice car, with working aircon! that's was lovely coming back in 30+ degree weather!
I'll try and upload some photos

Well done.

Looking forward to the pics.

[MilesS835]

Here it is! I gave it a quick clean before taking these photos as it was disgusting!
