Very nice - this is one of those cars that I hated when it first came out, but now it's grown on me (or I've gotten old)
My friend Tom has a couple of these which have now had the full deEGR, deFAP and air doser bypass, and it's goes well for a big car
If I was in the market for a large saloon then I would get one of these.

I was tempted by this Welter's old boy
Until I saw it's an auto
Hate the thing's.

Same here, also not an estate - but thank you for the thought.

Vast boot though, it's about the only saloon I'd ever contemplate (alas not sure my back would like it). Autos, meh, I love 'em, but either you get them or you don't, as I keep telling my mate Max here (another auto hater) they're designed to be so simple even American kids can drive them. I'm sure that'll be a ZF too, so well-tested, not a PSA in-house "we can save a bundle and make it ourselves" disaster.

Next car I get for my own use will deffo be an Auto, what is the point in driving in (worsening) urban traffic and constantly working the clutch and gearbox?

Even my kids want auto's.

I retired 14 years ago, I've had three 406's since then.

Just get a driverless car Welters & be done with it
Oh hang on call a cab

I like driving & my 3.0 V6 MANUAL has reminded me why

What do we reckon, povvo spec HDi 90? They usually are...

[Welly]

Ooof, that's a bit of alright, no engine bay pics so dunno the bhp. Looks like it's been garaged the front fogs are still clear.

That's be a seriously cheap way of doing 100K miles over the next 3 years for someone on a budget.

[GingerMagic]

Not quite poverty spec, I see the walnut on the doors and rear leccy windows - plus a sat nav screen..

[GingerMagic]

Check out this absolute corker - I would have bought this regardless of the ear bashing from her indoors, had the car been a manual...

I haven't worked out how to insert pictures yet, without the bloato fucket thing...

[steve_earwig]

Right click on the picture, hit "copy image location", come here, hit the image tags in the row above the text box (looks like a rectangle with a gorilla holding a balloon in it) and paste your link between the two lots of square brackets.



Auto? Not a problem. Not so low on the miles tho and not sure about red as it attracts psychopaths and traffic cops playing snooker.

[GingerMagic]

True, but it's £300 less than the lower mileage diesel saloon - and I'm sure this V6 would put a smile on my face ( and a hole in my wallet...)

Thanks for the help Steve
