Amazon Estate Wanted

Premature · Mar 13th, 2011, 10:17

Does anyone know of a good Amazon estate for sale? There was a very nice looking one on here last week, but the advert seems to have vanished, so I am assuming it is sold. If not, can the person who was advertising please contact me.

My budget is around £4,500, but I could go slightly higher for an exceptional car. I would like a car with overdrive, but would consider anything if the bodywork was really good. My wife would prefer anything other than white, but again, if the best car around is white, then that is what I will buy.

Thanks for your time. If anyone knows of a car, please do let me know. I am based just outside Edinburgh, but am prepared to travel. My e mail is simonwright67@googlemail.com

Thanks for bringing this one to my attention. I have spoken to the vendor, and it sounds as though it might be a good bet. My only problem is that Crewe is a long way away, and the vendor doesn't have the facility to take or to e mail any pictures.

Is there anyone with any knowledge of Amazons that lives near to Crewe, and who might be prepared to go and have a look at the car on my behalf? Any assistance would be much appreciated.

Did anyone get round to looking at this car in Crewe? I was wondering what it was like

From the pics I saw it needs a lot of love, sweat and money. Priced about £1.5k more than it should be.

It was quite rotten in many area's but not a bad car even so. It would have needed a lot of work to really sort it out. With all the new parts that came with it it was probably worth the money but would need someone with the time and inclination to sort it out.
