It's 67 miles from Gaydon.....
2hrs 52mins from here though & a long way to go to find that it may not be what I'm expecting (as happens so often with Ebay cars).I'll be chuffed if the little man manages the 90mins to Gaydon without getting pi**ed off.
Also have to bear in mind that at 75k, it's probably waiting to have all the stuff done that I've already done on mine aswell as a defapping at some point & whatever other electrical crap occurs along the way.
Still tempted though...

I blew far too much money on the new bathroom and new bedroom ie about 6k
But I'm still very, and I mean very tempted by a 407 SW XS Sport still
Few more seem to be popping up
One was up for under 4k the other day!!!

There's an 83k GLX 2.2 20 miles from me on Auto Trader in non-metallic red for £2995. Think the cheapest way into a 2.2 HDi with less than 100k is to get a C5. I got mine 5 years ago with less than 90k for £2700. Just a pity that nobody knew how to deFAP them when I had it. Couldn't even get the FAP serviced outside the dealer network when I had mine.

Guys, guys guys! This car is AWESOME looking. God I wish I could go to a dealer and buy a 406 brand new, only slightly improved mechanically (brakes, drop links, fap system, more power, less emissions, better in a crash and perhaps more powerful, more options and better sound deadening with more solid interior ).
