Cars so far considered - looked at.
2001 '51 plate Mercedes E200 Kompressor 7 seater estate with full leather / air etc etc.. unfortunately it's a 6 speed manual. 5995 quid (very cheap for what it is)2000 W Golf Cabriolet in silver. 1.6 SE power hood, 15" alloys etc 5495 quid (Also below what the market would suggest)
1995 N Land Rover Discovery 3.9 V8 manual XS - leather, twin sunroofs etc. 2995 quid1999 T BMW E46 318i SE - all the toys 5995 quid
So - no real shape or pattern to what I've considered so far. Ideally whatever I get should have some sense of occasion about it for one reason or another (so that rules out the E46 really).
Anything else to consider ?
( Doesn't have to be dreadfully practical or indeed massively quick - that's all covered)
