Title: bored and want a change
Post by: Jay w on 29 November 2008, 13:21:44
I have been looking at cars again today, in the hope that i woulnd't be able to find anything that could replace the CDX.....

Have found a few cars, mainly diesels, but given the mileage i do i have a feeling that might not be a bad idea.....

the CDX as it stands:

2001 CDX 2.6
Replacement engine fitted 22,000 miles ago (it had done 10K before being pulled out of a vectra)
Car has done 119000 miles, the paintwotk on the whole is good.
MV6 leather interior
Elite Rear blind
Elite self dimming rear mirror
LPG kit fitted 20,000 miles ago
Gearbox oil and filter changed 18,000 miles ago
new diff pinion oil seal
Irmscher wood effect steering wheel
New front disc and pads at MOT (August)
New rear pads at MOT
Debadged grille
Eyebrows
Half worn Dunlop SP9000's

MOT until August 2009
Tax until Feb 2009

i am thining of putting it up for £1750

I haven't mentioned the steror as this would be the bargaining point.

I would be interested in peoples comments, this is not a for sale notice, i am still bouncing the idea about currently

Piccys that were taken earlier this year

Mercedes will be more reliable but not fun like BMW..

Vorsprung durch Technik. ?
It means advances due to technology.
The slogan of Audi in the 80s.

Dazzler
Use the phrase Rücksprung durch Technik, which means a great leap backwards due to technology
