Even if it isn't plod most people will think it is. :-\

85,000 miles isn't exactly low mileage, either........ My MV6 has done less.

Also, white does the car no favours in my opinion, and in CDX trim it is less desirable than an Elite.

Sorry guys, but £600 would be closer to the mark. :)

Yours will be worth much more Mr.Opti going by the mark up on this white one  ::) ;)

Thought this would have been ex-plod but they tend to use 3.0/3.2 and don't have sunroof's and didn't think VX sold them to the general public in white, Someone sprayed it maybe ???

Hefty price also but does look clean.

never buy a 2.5 v6 again >:(

Its actually the most reliable and most economical (if manual) out of the whole range of engines, just goes to show what happens if pattern parts does to an engine  ::)

The DBW V6s have shit idles too, worse on fuel. Better looking engine bay though, less junk in there.

Yet so many times you have reminded us in last 40 years you have never bought genuine, nor will never start. You don't like £15 genuine oil and filter changes, too pricey for you.  Porkies here me thinks ;)

So bad workmanship killed your 2.5 then? I've changed oil coolers, it's straight forward.

Still stands that 2.5 is one of best engines ever fitted :)
