whilst looking for a replacement for the Elite estate I came across this

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=190554468513&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT

Looked interesting until reading a bit further down it turned out to be a cat c.
Nice though.

very nice, I like that. 5 Series are a lot smaller than the Omega though. Outside can't really tell but inside feels smaller. Tiny mirrors too.

I see that a replacement engine has been fitted as well,I wonder if it ate the swirl flaps as I've read that quite a few of them have done so :-?

Apparently the previous owner drove it into a ditch and the engine sucked in water.
