Default Wanted estate car

Hi,
I'm looking to buy a 700 or 900 series estate car 'like the one I used to own' must be reliable but some work not objected to. Any model considered auto or manual but a tow bar would be an advantage. I am located near Retford but I am prepared to travel within reason. I want a rwd car so please help before I buy a Mercedes or BMW.

Default wanted estate car

I have a 960 auto estate with 112669 miles on it. It has a tow bar; was recently given new headlights and cam belt. In very good condition both bodily and mechanically. I've had it for about a year and have just replaced it with a Landcruiser 4x4. Located in Suffolk. Asking £1800. I can see no way to upload pictures here so if you would like some please send me your e-mail.
Regards,
Terry King
