cms206 Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 Evening chaps,A colleague of mine is looking to move on his 2004/53-plate 9-5 Aero manual estate. Mot 3/15, no tax, 153k miles, full leather interior, heated front seats, cruise control and all the usual toys. He's had it two years is properly anal about servicing so it's been done every 5500 miles and he's replaced both front wheel bearings, both catalytic converters, discs and pads all round, all bushes, rear shocks, vacuum hoses, charge hoses and has receipts for a new turbo and DI cartridge. It is a bloody tidy car, but he wants to move it on. Bit pricey for most of us I suspect (and me) but had I the cash I'd bite his hand off.It's offered in the work for £1,000... he doesn't want any offers. PM me for the number if interested.

Mr Livered Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 That looks lovely. If I was in the market for something as modern as this it would deffo have to be one of these. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spiny Norman Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 That's the proper quick one too, IIRC. Never fail to be amazed/annoyed/disappointed at how frequently cars I'd be all over like a bad rash turn up on my doorstep just after I've blown my load on something else. If this had appeared a couple of weeks ago it would probably have had my nick-naks in it's glovebox by now, but there you go. GLWTS, I'd have been well into that.

If this had appeared a couple of weeks ago it would probably have had my nick-naks in it's glovebox by now, but there you go. Same here. I bought a Volvo 850 T5 this morning (off the blue forum) because I wanted a fast estate car. This is quite a bit dearer than what I bought, but... just... LOOK AT IT FFS IT'S GORGEOUS. If the two had been available at the same time, I would have been emptying my piggy bank to see if I could go for the Saab instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xtriple Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 Where in the Country is this located? Don't need it but may be tempted if it's not hundreds of miles away (sick of travelling to look at cars!). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skattrd Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 I'm guessing if its a colleague of cms' then it'll be somewhere around Glasgowshire Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Station Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 These are ace, highly under-rated for some reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Negative Creep Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 I'd love one of these, but this appears tro be completely the worng end of the country. That said, does anyone else instantly get put off an ad when it states "no offers"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xtriple Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 Glasgow shire is a bit far from Devon so I'm out. Yes, 'no offers' tells me not to bother. I like a haggle and don't feel like a winner unless I get at least a fiver off the asking! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HMC Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 Lovely! As well as being the rapid one I like this all the more as ( hard to tell from the pics) I think it predates the whole dame Edna facelift thing they forced on the 9-5 inLater years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dome Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 I've had one of these, cracking big cars and nice and quick. My heart belongs to 9000 Aeros though-a bit more special feeling and even quicker. A good 9000 is probably worth more than a 9-5 though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
