I really hate beige interiors.  Even more than I hate gold, sorry champayne, paintwork.  Silver and gold, what an appalling combo!

I would buy it for £4k, and swap the interior.

"cream" interior aint that bad with black dash etc, but its not right with silver i agree, the green glass doesnt help, tinted windows might improve things, but forgeting the interior, just looking at the silver...yaaaaaawn. Not even any rust or a dent to brake up the day. How dull.

Incredible.....
This is the same garage I bought my car from. At the time he had a 52 Silver 2.2 CD with 23k on it with cloth interior and the black 2.6 Elite with black leather that I have now with 81k on it.
I must confess - silver leaves me cold too and I just couldn't take my eyes off the black one with nearly 60k more miles on it. I would have regretted the decision to go for the silver one until I died (I doubt my wife will forgive me until then either as the silver one was cheaper too).
Must admit even in silver - I'd have been tempted by the 3.2 - but not at anywhere near this sort of money.
Seemed a decent bloke to deal with though.

My 2001 CDX was Midnight Black with black leather interior... the best combination ever. Sadly I don't have it any more...

What do you make of the dark grey matt colour that now seems fashionable with 'posh' cars? I have seen a 3-series BMW, a Range Rover, and a Bentley in this colour - and they look like something straight out of Iron Man 2. Also strangely the paint is rough to the touch, a bit like wrought iron - i.e. it is not smooth. Opinions?

must admit, when i first hurd of the mileage on the 3.2 i was scepticle, esp as the garage has had several suprisingly low mileage cars advertised before, even Mr Budden doesnt seem get them that low.

But having seen it, makes mine look a bit tatty.

Love it, but wouldn.t want to own it, looks like its been done with a rattle can imo.

ok time to fess up.

Had to be a bit carefull as the guy who told me about this car might have been interested at one point. Seems he's not now so ....

Its this one, as Josh spotted.

now obviously the asking price is silly, but possibly in line with some forcourt prices given the mileage. And the mileage would appear genuine given the condition.

If this was Black, as has been mentioned i would be very interested but the silver...well... leaves me a little cold, i like the creme/baige interior now as i have it in mine, note there is no brown in it, but as mentioned to buy it would have to be right in every respect, if it was silver and black, yes maybe. If it was black and baige, yes. Silver and baige........ somehow, no! Not that bothered. But the mileage......aaaaaah resist.


Also the seller said he'd been offered 7k, which he didnt take for some reason, and another buyer said he would pay full asking if black interior.

It even has the cargo net for the boot, first aid kit, triangle etc all present.

Wouln't go more than 6k myself. :-/

Beige interior?  Hopeless with a family surely?  The valeting bills would cost more than the outrageous asking price (and that's after you've cleared the bird's nests and mould out of it at that mileage!)

Already have a baige interior, and dont worry, i wouldn't buy a car from Worzel Gumage.

Not started it, no engine codes, it is Mint. Still on original tyres maybe, going by the cracks on the sidewalls. Original exhaust, very slight rust in the usual places. Interior is spotless, all the touchable surfaces still have that original new moulded feel, not worn down at all.

2013 with gid.

assuming its in your favourite colour and you wanted such a car, how much would you pay to own it?

as said, its mint.

So how is that mint........... ?

Yeah poorly worded Mike, refering to rust on the exhaust by the clamp on the rear box, where they all rust, well, more like a slight brown hugh in this case iirc.

Take no notice Kai, its all in the eye (and nose) of the beholder.
