Ive always wanted an MV6 manual estate, the auto was to get me through whilst my back was knackered, im hoping after this last op that i will be able to drive a manual again and this ones looks ok from the description.
It will need to be a mini face-lift though, which i think it is.

I got given directions from a yokel referencing woolfardisworthy once.

I have no idea how he pronounced it but it had about 2 syllables, IIRC. Needless to say, I remained lost. ::)
