FOR SALE: 406 V6 Estate (S Reg)

Post by Daf »

Just a heads-up about my beloved 406 V6 3.0L Estate which I need to sell having now got a Seat Alhambra :cry: :lol:

Done 87,000 on the clock, and I had the cambelt done at 72,000 - NB this is an expensive job - over a grand it cost to do this!

Full leather, heated, memory electric seats, electric mirrors, windows etc.

Just had a new rad to replace the standard Pug-rotted one - this cost £270 to do! New battery, exhaust and tyres in the past 24 months, passed all its last 3 MOTs no problems. Have all paperwork and previous service history and receipts.

Bought her in October 2006 and driven her daily on a 25 mile round commute, plus a few trips to Ireland and Wales, absolute dream to drive, the auto box is smooth and responsive - deceptively fast. Does 0-60mph in about 8 seconds!

Has a standard Pug/Clarion CD changer and head unit, but I will throw in the after-market Sony MP3 CD player which I had fitted when I got the car.

The only odd thing is that silly flashing airbag light but I could never be bothered to have a look under the seat for the loose wiring connection. (See threads here)

All the specs are hereon an AA fact sheet.

Not advertised anywhere else just yet as I'd rather she went to a 406 fan.

Questions and offers please! (Live in Surrey)

Hi

It's snowing here at the moment so no pics, maybe if it clears up I will do some tomorrow. Obviously it needs a clean and valet but I will do that. There are the usual minor scratches and tiny dinks that any car of this age should have, but no rust and no dents. One of the covers over the headlight washer nozzles is missing - a 1cm piece of plastic.

She has a towbar - some might baulk at this, but I have pulled people out of ditches with no bother, and twice, yes TWICE, the old hook has protected the car as wallied went into my rear in crawling traffic. Their cars weren't so lucky!

Best car I've ever had...

I guess that'll be coming our way then, the sky's pretty dark. No motorbike today then!
