They did an Almera with two tone paint as well iirc.

I think that's a private plate, MOT check says first registered in 1988. I accidentally put K25MAF first and that threw up an Audi A3 which definitely wouldn't be old enough to be on a K!

I miss my Aero estate, remapped (noob stage 1) and manual - so comfy, so fast. Still in the AS fold I believe. I'd definitely have another some day. Would also like to try a 9000 at some point. Maybe when I've had enough of my T5.

My grandma had a Micra Passion. Exactly the same as a bog standard one but with green paint and a sticker on the boot.

Lovely stuff. The most handsome estate Peugeot ever did.

205 GTi/CTi/STDT. Anyone has one they would like to swap for an 850 T5 estate, hit me up...

The latest Suzuki Jimny. Those things are going to hold their value.

Holy cow this is ace and I want it. There's one on AutoTrader for £1500... 12 month MOT as well. WCPGW? -
Holy rear bumper alignment, Batman. I'm assuming that's factory.

A drive in a base spec 1.4 estate must be a truly depressing experience.
-
The 2CV would be worth more than the Senator now!

On the other hand, MBs and BMWs of low spec were miserly indeed but the extra money bought you far superior quality, refinement and comfort to what the likes of Ford and Vauxhall were churning out. They built them to last, and quite a lot of them have. Nowadays, less so - you get softer touch interior plastics sitting on top of mechanicals where every penny that could be pinched has been. You really are just paying for the badge.
