Don't do it!!


Actually, seems good value. Get it bought.

[Garlick]

£13k.....I'll be in one sooner or later if that's all they're worth.

[E55 Max]

Check the Radiator works properly, other wise it can lunch the gearbox (As I found out).
Oh and I would ask for the TransVestite to be left behind....unless that is the draw....

[schmalex]

Get it bought - that's great value!!!

[plasticpig]

Check that it has had all the recalls done. The early ones have quite a few IIRC. Some of them expensive like the front diff failing. The air suspension is not the most reliable although far more reliable than the P38.

[monthefish]

How old do you have to be to drive one of these without looking like a bit of a c&%t? is there such an age limit?

It's certainly a lot of car for the money.

[Ciaran]

They are not far from me if you want me to poke about it?

[Hammerhead]

Buy it, paint it yellow.

I saw this 2003/52 Vogue sell at auction last month, it was immaculate but had done 120,000 with full history. It made £6,500.

Good God. That is seriously cheap (even if the running costs won't be).

[angusc43]

That's a HUGE amount of motor for the money.

Having just bought a wafty E500 (with similar spec for similar money) I say JFDI

[Rawhide]

Thought about a Cayenne S for similar money. I made that move last year when I saw how much they dropped.

Because there not that good in snow?

That would be the classic "because I have drive to all four wheels, the rubber in my tyres will miraculously become 100 times grippier than normal".

Actually they are.

Just because someone crashed on into a ditch, this doesn't detract from the vehicle's abilities.

(I'm assuming you were joking)
