On Autotrader

Selling off one (or bits :o) of your XM collection, or perhaps searching for those elusive headlight washer covers? This is the place to do it.

On Autotrader

Post by ragger »

An "M Reg" Diesel estate has gone on to Autotrader today and I am very keen on it. Does anyone know this car and can give me any info?

I shall contact the seller tomorow but, unfortunately I didn't see the ad until quite late tonight.

Thanks in anticipation.

That one looks good Rob.

Provided the rest of the car is as good as the pictures and description make it out to be, its pretty good value for money at that price.

If you go to see the car, make sure you check out for rot at the rear, especially where the subframe mounts onto the body shell.

Well, I'm getting the train to London on Saturday!

Always a gamble but I travel with optimism.

Best of luck - that's a hell of a lot of car for the money. If it's half as good as it looks you'll be pleased.

Me too, its hard to resist. One small blessing is the small number of Xms that ever come up for sale in NI. :lol:

Given they don't use salt on the roads there, wouldn't you be best to buy cars from Eire?

There are even fewer there! Also they're over priced. Here are a couple of examples:
