'03 MV6 3.2 Auto Estate - Rubens Red . . .

 . . . . . . with birdshite on the roof and scuffmarks on the rear bumper as a previous owner had dogs that jumped in and out and this owner also had horses so the rear load area is kind of rough but ok and usable and the aerial is knackered but I can't be arsed to fit a new one and a front tow point cover is missing and 90k miles on the clock and it goes great but I've never really floored it but maybe will one day although the radio is a bit strange and needs manual tuning every time I want to change station but never mind as the CD player works well and most radio is crap anyway but it got through recent MOT however advisories had something about some worn joints or some damn thing that I don't know about so get it sorted at garage sometime but overall given what I paid for it and the hammering it's had this year it's been excellent and continues to be so keeping it for now but with the expectation that something will go wrong at some stage but what the hell would I get as a replacement I suppose a Volvo V70 would probably be the obvious but I had an early one many years ago and hated it but I spose they have improved but it's Friday and I'm getting a bit bored with this now actually not a bit bored but very bored so I think I'll go and find something else stupid to do with my time  . . . like get some punctuation lessons

CDX 

It's bit of a class system really isn't it?   

The Elite owners look down on the CDX owners, the CDX owners look down on the CD owners, the CD owners look down on the GLS owners and they all hate the MV6 owners!! 

And I thought it was my poor personal hygiene and obnoxious personality  . . . . . .

Only just noticed one of the categories :

I don't have one of these old rustbuckets

Surprising to see most are Elite models? Would've thought there would be more CD models out there

Your offer of £25,000 for it is reluctantly accepted  . . . cash only, but I'm sure you have some loose change. Send the Chauffeur down to pick it up

Have you got a beard Rog? 

If so I reckon I might have passed you on the M4 eastbound a couple of months ago near The Peoples Republic of Readingham.  I remember thinking to myself " You don't see many that colour, especially estates. Wonder if he's an OOFer? "

No beard, I'm too good looking to want to cover my face with hair  but frequently up and down the M4

From what has turned up at my house, and from recent meets I've been to, as I said on another thread, I think the lower spec cars are starting to disappear.

I've not got the figures to hand, but I wouldn't be surprised if the CD was the most common to leave the factory, with Elites relatively rarer. But as they common bargain banger territory, that's changed.
