Default V70 or 850 estate

Hi.

Within the next 2-3 weeks I will be looking for a V70 or 850 estate.
I made the mistake of selling my V70 earlier this year and am now regretting that decision.
Ideally, I will be looking for an auto box for health reasons, but other than that I am fairly easy, though a working towbar would be nice.
I am being realistic, and realise that my budget will not stretch to an immaculate model, but I am not interested in anything that needs a lot of work, and it must have at least some mot.

My budget will be a maximum of £600, though that could be affected by travel costs if the car is out of my area, so ideally I am looking for something in the north east, but can travel a little further for the right car.

Please let me know if you know of anything suitable.

Many thanks

Going to be needing something fairly soon, so will consider a manual or saloon.

Dear Bartman,
Please look at my post in the 850/70 sales section .It is a little over your budget but is now entirely fault free and does not look bad at all ,or it will do after I have spruced up the alloys a bit .I could stretch free delivery to you in the north of england too
