the "whatcar" valuation thingy (which several people says seems accurate) gives a private sale price of 1195 for that model, so I guess not.
I might be tempted if I was in the market for a different car.
but seriously: he needs something bigger?

If that's in the condition it appears to be (i.e. very good) then I'd say so, too.

Though I'm sure I saw that same car for sale when I was originally looking for a 2.5TD (and missed it), just much further south in the country..

If I had space to put it, it'd be almost tempting.

I guessed it was that one before you sent the PM. You`ve been hinting in various threads about LPG ;)

Could be but that is a Durham Car with a Durham Reg..... :)

Albs, what you talking about?? there are no bids on it.... ::) ::)

I am confused in that it is a 'Select' but has a sunroof... :-/ :-/ :-/

Now then, that would be ideal for day to day for work, and just up the roadish......  Anyone want to buy a petrol estate?, same money and a year newer :D :D :D

The reason for sale is Needs a Bigger Car, the reason for that is there isnt enough space for the kids, for a short trip round the doors ok but for a longer trip its far to cramped.
And Yes the car is in good condition, has low milage for a diesel, and it is a members car, Mine.

I know where you are coming from regarding space for kids,I have three and the eldest is six foot six :D so space is limited when they are all on board,our trusty old ulysses gets the long trips which don't involve caravan towing :y
