Just a smidge over budget this one, however I simply had to share it for the spec. I was searching for an F01 with a towbar btw, this is the only one.

What do you need to tow? Luxemburg?

The horses maybe - for me it would be the jet-skis.

I did think it curiously epic that someone specced a 760 with a towbar. I want to buy a car from that guy.

The mind boggles at the amount of fuel he burned to do 113000 miles in 5 years....

What would be filling up the space in the boot on that 760?

Surprisingly little I suspect. Tough old 4 speed GM autobox, no CANBUS, tried and tested engine without the distributor/ignition fire issues of the 6.0 XJS. If it's not rusty then that should be a thirsty but otherwise painless proposition. As it should be for £10k.

Although in this particular case you'd be buying it from a second hand dealer who just by chance I'm sure decided to use the local Sytner as a photo backdrop. wink Amusingly, I think the last photo probably gives away the actual premises as that certainly isn't the opposite view from the Sytner showroom!

Big spec but there's still way too much depreciation to go on that. Plus the boot looks silly. I'd have it for £15k I think.

Straight out of left field, but give it a chance....

Extremely, extremely rare facelift Ocean Race XC90 with the stonking 325bhp Yamaha-made V8.

With an educated guess id say probably <5 of these on the road in the UK in Ocean Race spec.

0-60 is about 6.5s from memory (and quite hilarious) and if it cruises anything like my D5 variant, then its the epitome of bargey.

Rare, fast, interesting, different smile

Still for sale - now at £13,995.00

I think if I wanted a massive V8 SUV my money would be going to Stuttgart.

I think this looks like an excellent buy:



£5500 for a 2010 3.6l Skoda Superb 4x4. That's an astonishing amount of car for the money.

With a private plate that could pass as a 40 grand car IMO.
