Said to have had only done 123000 km:  New calipers, brake lines and pads all round: New master brake cylinder: New clutch cylinders : new  carpet :

What do not like it says a rust bubble is showing on the front wing. Wonder how rusty the body frame is?

I do not mind if the seats look a bit torn. But a clean should make them look better.

Useful Junk in the trunk.

Seem to recall these were pretty highly rated back in the day, can't be many left now.  Go on @UltraWomble this is right up your street!

Does it not seem a bit unlikely they would have this on the books until 2022?

About maybe 5 years or so ago now, they had a Mk1 Zafira at a rural cop shop not far from here.

Would love one of these,  more recently people have been asking ridiculous money for them and then finding out they are nowhere the same actual value as an FS1E. This is probably reasonably priced.

I think that's been for sale for aaaaaages. At least when I started looking for one earlier this year. Iirc it was on Facebook and they were asking for twice what it is now. 

Cheap at the moment and unfortunately at risk of the banger brigade.

This for me is Peak Transit. @Cavcraftwill tell you it's the wrong engine, but it boils down to whether you prefer being slow or being deaf.

'Excitingly offered at no reserve'. Could reach £15k I reckon.

These always seem to end up with the dodgiest bomb site dealers for some reason. It's a CL500 for £2900k in (B)Hockley Heath.

Presumably because they're the only ones prepared to bid on them at auction. Anyone bigger will run away from the potential massive liability of a old, very premium and (perceived) complex car with plenty of known issues. Also pretty old fashioned now and expensive to run. So not an exactly a big or quick seller at this end of the market.

I do fancy one some day. I remember them being the luxury car of choice during the haydays of Two and Half Men.
