Elite v MV6
« on: 17 July 2009, 00:15:19 »
I am sure some of the differences have been listed before but can you peeps run them by me again......

02 elite estate and an 02 MV6 estate - both 3.2 both non plod - both full leather - both auto - both have milage betweem 60 & 80k with full vauxhall service history.

What differences is there likely to be?
What are the prices from a private owner likely to be?

I think you'll find the Elite has all the toys but MV6 is CD spec (apart from options such as leather) and has uprated stiffer springs. The trim in in MV6 is metallic as opposed to wood in the Elite. Engines are identical.

As bob.dent says, for facelifts, MV6 spec is near CD spec, but with slightly lowered, slightly stiffened suspension, and larger, wider wheels.

Elite has all the toys, MV6 fairly basic spec.

I would take the Elite, but put MV6 suspension on it, as i find standard Elites wallow around too much

Wallows more than my 2.2, maybe cause that Elite is an Estate.

Never actually driven a propper Elite Saloon

Didn't the elites have self-leveling suspension?

Also, the MV6 had a specific front bumper on the facelift.
