Post by: YZ250 on 16 January 2017, 12:10:47: I may be wrong but I believe that there were the odd few 3.2 CDX's that were used as MP's chauffeur vehicles or protection squad cars. :-\

Adds to the intrigue if showing as a 2.6. :-\

Still worth a punt if you want one my 2.6 was a great car had a 2.2 as well which in my opinion is underpowered.

I'd have to agree about the desmond. I thought about changing mine for a V6, but with it being a late year ('03), low mileage(69k) one with, no rust and no real mechanical issues I just couldn't justify it. Not to mention that with my shovel-like hands, the space around the 4 pot engine bay is most welcome!
