Will THIS be the volume the C216 CL drops into budget?

I think COVID might keep things mental for a bit yet, so I'm going to say no, except to caveat that we'll see one hyper-mile barried shed in silver pop up.

In my view until new car sales/registrations start to rise we won't see a depression in used car prices

How long did 17 last in comparison to the others? I think it's 0a that tracks it isn't it?

17 took slightly longer than 16. I guess high prices and most of the thread time taking place under limiting tier rules or lockdown doesn't help.

Edited as I had entered today's date wrong. The slightly longer comment still stands, but it's closer!

Nice unmolested E38 728i here:

Yes, looks good

Very nice, I'd be on the phone already if today had gone to plan!

What's not gone to plan?

Had a viewing of my 190e earlier but his offer was too low.

That's lovely!

Never owned a Jag but that'd seriously tempt me. Not bothered re it not being a V8; spec and condition win it for me and that interior looks gorgeous. It's worn 100k very well indeed

What are they like for bork factor?

[Sterillium]

V18 already?

One of my contenders, expensive suspension issues aside they are probably the safest bet for an old barge.

Suspension stuff is generally easily sorted; bar the price. Even with my current touring; the rear SLS can cause issues & cost to fix, but generally that's down to poor maintenance etc

The only worry for me is if I could cope being back in a saloon when being so used to the versatile space of a touring!

Similar but a generation on from mine, even the same colour. I bet it has similar performance but much better MPG. I just don’t love the looks of this generation, or the sound of a v6. Probably a good buy though. I would seek out the 4.2 v8 though.
