Title: Just bought an '03' 3.2 Elite Estate
Post by: joshwyatt on 24 June 2010, 22:15:00
Just picked up quite a nice estate, it's an '03' 3.2 Elite, done 61,000 miles with FSH, it's black with black leather. I've always said to myself, I don't want an estate...but I already like this a lot for some reason, not quite the same through the corners as the saloon though. I'll post up some pictures tomorrow morning  :y

Good Lad Josh :y
Is this one for keeps or to sell on?

Thanks Del!

I'm not sure Daz, I really never thought I'd want an estate. It was originally bought to sell on, but I may keep it...we'll see what happens  :)

won't have any shortage of takers for that, sure that will be snapped very quickly (if you choose to sell)  :y

Thanks Tunnie, there was quite strong competition for it, and it needs jobs doing to it...so it may not be worth selling. I think I'll take a trip over to Brackley when TB's free to get the Sat Nav out of German and have a check over it. If you're free one evening and TB is aswell, might be nice to get some food? Curry for you, and chicken and chips for me  :D

Paul...it's not the the rubens red one I was expecting, this one is different. I'll send you a PM with all the details before I do anything, to see what you think about it.

ChrisGixer, indeed we did...I only found out about the car a few hours before I bought it, and there was someone else who was intent on getting it.

James, you didn't reply, but not to worry at all  :y
I'll send you a PM anyway, just to catch up with you.

 ;D well, there are scratches, and then there's this car. It's no different to any other ex met police vehicle I've seen really. Black shows them up more, it will need to be painted. I can get it done for £400ish, so not too hard. Many have polished out, but to bring it up to perfect condition it would need to be painted. But I've got someone who does a very good job, cheaply...so it can easily be done.
Everytime I see your saloon Ian, I want it  ;D
