    It costs 1204 Euro per annum. But the way I look at it is that you are getting a brilliant car that once cost 70 grand for pittance. Even at seven years old, just short of three grand is a bargain for that car in my eyes.

    I'd jump on it if the leather wasn't so bad and the miles so high. Always had a soft spot for the S80.

    is it just me, or does the pic show an automatic lever, but the description says 'manual' ??

    Ode To The Motorist

    “And my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, generates funds to the exchequer. You don't want to acknowledge that as truth because, deep down in places you don't talk about at the Green Party, you want me on that road, you need me on that road. We use words like freedom, enjoyment, sport and community. We use these words as the backbone of a life spent instilling those values in our families and loved ones. You use them as a punch line. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the tax revenue and the very freedom to spend it that I provide, and then questions the manner in which I provide it. I would rather you just said "thank you" and went on your way. Otherwise I suggest you pick up a bus pass and get the ********* ********* off the road”

    I was offered a 01 S80 a year ago for 1500 euros, never much liked them tbh but loved the 740/760 though.
