Crazy isn't it. I thought someone would buy it to drive around, pick up the SRS controller and ABS unit from on here / ebay / breakers at their leisure and fix the faults before the MOT at the end of May. Either that or break it.

It would have made a perfect vehicle for my project for that sort of money but its the getting it home thing that makes it difficult!

Looks like a nice car and not even that far away from me - but since I already have an 850 2.5 20v estate there wouldn't be much point really
Might be worth getting some more pictures up if possible e.g. showing the interior etc... still I can't believe it hasn't gone at £150, especially if it has good history as you suggest, even if it does need some work.

Horrendously tempted by this.
Worth getting it taxed thru direct debit, just,that Sheffield is just too far from me in Southampton!

Hi Nick, is it still available @ £150? If so I'll have it. Please pm your contact info so we can arrange payment and pick up. Thanks.

After a succession of people expressing interest but then saying their wife said no etc. (nobody actually came to see it), I've had to bite the bullet and have arranged for a scrapper to collect it on Tuesday. Breaks my heart it really does. Started it up for the first time in probably 3 months today to move it and it started instantly and idled so smoothly - I felt so guilty.

With the amount of trouble she had with her Pajero last weekend, and using my V70 for work, I thought she'd really want one, but nope. I would have loved to have taken your one on, but it looks like we're stuck with this agricultural Pajero for a while longer. She just will not part with it, and I have to keep on fixing it. I hate the thing. Small comfort, but this is one bloke who really did want it. |

I am extremely happy to report that the old girl has been saved from the scrap man and is no longer for sale. I think it's going to a really good home too.
