Nice colour if your a girl. But the inside of the car is acceptable.
I like the way the security code thing flaps down i thought they were normally beside the ash tray.
What i do like in the D8 execs that have cream leather is the doorhandles and glovebox and dash corners were cream. Does anyone think thats better, or was the black in the d9 better.
I suppose the black glovebox and side thing meant that they didnt show dirt and scratches as bad, but the handles are nice.

So do I. I love the cream D8 interior. Consistency in styling is admirable.

This sort of consistency keeps your manufacturing costs down.

i suppose its cheaper for them to have made all the handles black in the d9 range rather than the colours available in the d8.

The Honda has a cream interior, including doors and dash.

It shows the dirt. Need to be handy with a dirt devil and interior cleaning spray.

Aye she's nice, big automatic, soft suspension, floats about like me mates dad's old Merc used to. Feels fairly well built too.

Heavy on the juice, 20mpg might as well be driving a Range Rover :shock: Miss the economy of the 406, for such a big car it was very economical.

Needs a good wash and polish and I'll get proper pics up. Just the last few weekends been family and rain and that.

Would like better alloys and clear repeaters, but looks like my money will be going to BP and Maxol for the next while :oops:

And one of the last pics I took of old SCuZ before I let her go. Can ye guess where I was? :)

Image

And where was she last summer? :)

Interesting a D9 without the climate control. The knobs definatley dont suit the D9 dash.
Sirwiggum im going to guess its the football place as you come into belfast on the M1, i have no idea about football but i think its windsor park? Nice big car though. (what happened the 406, them alloys look appealing)

Would you say thats repairable?
also note the rear right door, the door handle is black, that car could have been involved in an accident at some point. before this one.

That MFD is a good example of the type A display.
And look at that glovebox it looks naked without the wood trim on it.
although such a spec would have been good for the 406 van which wouldnt have been hard to make, take an estate, remove the doors and windows in the back and you have it.
Why didnt they do that, the 305 was a sucessful van.
