your paying for the 03 plate.

Hold out for a retail MV6 or Elite.

Usual cobblers that that seller seems to talk. ::)

Depends entirely on how much of a Horlicks thay made of fitting / removing the plod gear, I reckon. I notice he only mentioned the grommets in the roof as a footnote. Cheeky. Worth watching to see what it makes, I reckon, but don't jump now.

It will need

Radio
Roof Liner
Roof bars
Possibly new dash
Centre console
New centre console air duct.
Bits of trim all over the place
Some dash re-wiring

It has poverty spec cloth (not leather like the add says!) seats, no electric rear windows, cd alloys etc etc

The paintwork will be a naff blow over following de-commisioning...

Having owned an ex-plod, I know what they are like.....there excellent at the right price and 2 grand is not the right price!

Yes, but with Very hard life.

Hotel21 wouldnt touch an ex-police car......
Thats enough for me.

At least you are in a position where you can do pretty much any job

windy rear windows, interior is extra dull... full of holes. may only have the TID, not MID, not much leccy stuff, remeber you may need to budget for a new Stainless steel zorst, i seam to remember police zorst systems where different? and silly expensive.

Like i say, hold out for a retail spec MV6 or Elite

Fair enough - what would be considered on the money for this car then?

i would not go for it at-all mate, i would go for it if we where in 2010 and this was a nail of a shed to haul dogs.

This is going to be a car for the dogs, AND your main car, so you are going to want the toys! You will be hankering for bose, leather, and the rest  ;)
