Andy665 0 Posted January 8, 2008 Deposit left last night - now got to decide what to replace it with. Better half is pushing for a BMW 528i Touring, I'm keeping "oddball" and fancying Saab 9-5 Aero estate, 250bhp, fwd, estate - most of loaded with equipment, seem to be pretty solid mechanically and theres a good specialist network - must admit I struggle with the BMW image Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mrbeige 0 Posted January 8, 2008 Interesting choice. My Dad hada 9000 CSE on a P-plate. 2.3 turbo, and it was a superb car. He had it for 3 years and 118,000 miles and the only thing that went wrong was one of the heated seats stopped working. It was pretty damn quick too; A superb 'over-taking' car! 2nd gear was really long! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andy665 0 Posted January 8, 2008 Looking at a 2000 plate Aero on Saturday, specced like you wouldn't believe, only done 45k - for sale at a dealer with full warranty for 4.7k, thats an awful lot of car for the money Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Andy665 0 Posted January 8, 2008 Don't think that another C fits the bill as being a practical family estate car :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
