Have a look at this

http://www.autotrader.co.uk/car-details/202306148508681


Then look at its MOT history
The 9 January 2023 Test still covers it ,despite the July fail , very odd
at least it's got 38 less mules on now than 3 July 2023  ;D
it's not just DeLoreans that do time travel  :P
We call them horses in the trade, Dave, not mules  ;D ;D

 You see, my mule don't like people laughing. He gets the crazy idea you're laughing at him......  ;D

If you could live with left hand drive why not import a good example low kilometrage Omega from the continent?

There  are three 50k miles example for about £7000  in Germany( suchen .mobile.de website)I could put you in touch with the chap at Specialist vehicles who imported ours.

LHD wouldnt be for everyone! Overtaking and car park barriers to name just two but maybe Convert it to RHD?

An Omega from further South might be even better but low mileage jobs are harder tocome by in Spain in my experience and often do not have any service history at all. My local garage was gobsmacked when I insisted on him filling in the logbook.

Another one for the hilarious when it's happening to someone else list.   ;D
They do diesels? What's the world coming to!
Same engine as yours, so at least it is a known entity  ;D

I wouldn't worry about that... He already owns two JLR products and STILL thinks a Range Rover is a good idea. ;D

I sat in one of those a while ago and I'm not a big fella by any means, but found it abit cosy so I reckon it would be a bit 'narrow' for TB!  ::)

I'm six one and I found both of mine to be spacious in the front, but space was tight in the back for such a big car.

This car appears to be finished in IRR (same as my 2nd XFR) a £2500 option. :y

Downside is that it is derv and comes with pissy 2.2 litre lump. :)

The downside is it runs on soot and won't pull the skin off a rice pudding. :)

I fit fine in XE's and XF's.  Rear is no good for tall people, but fine for normal height fat people like me :)

Did you feel cramped due to the high window line (presumably for strength)?

No, I know a FF RR is a bad, bad idea, especially as it would have to be diesel, and the 4.4 V8 is a direct relation to the engine in mine.

But, itches have to be scratched sometimes ;D.  Reality is, as it dont fit right on driveway, its unlikely to happen until I move.
