Diesel estate on eBay

If the seller did get it MOT'd, plus obtained the V5... could be a good'un...

BTW, just wondered how many 'Citroen mechanics' spell Hydraulic 'Hydrolic?'

You'd be amazed, Philip. I know of a Vauxhall service advisor who still manages to include such classics as the 'Astar', 'Zafria', 'Singum' and 'Mervia' in their model range. I think he's slightly dyslexic though, so there's a reason for it - but my point is, stranger things have been known to happen!

Looks tidy and low mileage for somebody!

And that someone MIGHT be me. Not a million miles away and the same colour as my soon-to-be-collected TZD estate, which, handily enough, has a couple of panels that need replacing.
I`m thinking make one good one out of the two and scrap/strip/sell on the one above.

With respect Billy this one seems like it's not ready to become a donor car! Wait 'til Ken sees this ad. Seriously, it'd be a shame to scrap it I think.

There are still panels out there aren't there?

Got my eye on this one myself

Yes Philip, but first choice would be to swap the panels over and then advertise it as a complete car. I`d not remove anything that would effect MOT or running order so in essence it`d be the same car but with two or three panels switched from my `new` estate.
All pie-in-the-sky at the moment of course as it`s for sale to anyone on eBay.

Does look good from what we can see.

I can really do without buying anything without MOT right now, the XM is spread all over the drive and likely to stay that way for a few days. Just found out the MOT runs out today.

Mind you less than £350 with a logbook and MOT isnt bad for a tidy estate car.

Agreed, but this had neither.

True but he says for a extra £70 he can, which sounds bit dodgy to me.

Well gents we`re all sitting on gold mines here if that`s the kind of money they can fetch.
Makes the 300 notes I paid very recently for my TZD estate with full MOT look like a bargain despite the faults I found with it!

True, but bearing in mind you can pay £300 for a suit with ease these days its not alot of money.
