I need to replace my crappy Xantia with something that will be less of a culture shock when I drive it after the Griff, second hand but not over £8k any ideas? I'm currently in favour of a 156 V6

kin good motor the old SD1....apart from them trying to revert back to their natural state overnight of course, did you know that a lot of the styling cues came from the Daytona, course you did, I would be interested in having a look at this Raven place, where is it

cheers chaps, tried the Mondy V6 and was disappointed with the performance and amount of body roll, will the ST 200 be any better, Audi S2/coupe sounds good but possibly too pricey, Saab sounds good but it is on the large side and I prefer to get away from 4 pot engines

Marshy and guys, I finally got won over by a metallic black Saab 9000 CSE turbo from Simon @ Offord, was having hassles finding a 165 V6 and would have had to buy an early one anyway. I've heard they are a bit unreliable and I need that like a hole in the head
