    The prelude, merc, 520i and rover coupe I had were in that category, the prelude and 520i would last nearly forever :)
    The Zt is there now.

    Oh yeah, I forgot about Rovers! Still looking for a nice auto 75 Connoisseur SE. DGT, them's some lovely Vectras! Think I'll go for the Vectra Aero HOT though.

    i had a 99 e11 before with a similarly awful interior trim... but it was swirls not diamonds pattern, there was some real shockers on offer at the time it has to be said.

    still, cant bate a 4e :)

    It is a DGT!!!! :cool:

    Last time I got one of those cars, it was free and I still have it :)

    Shes way too expensive... Alas if I hadn't just bought a car I'd offer him something!

    Seeing that has put a smile on my face :)

    Has any of you lads invested in a Laguna? I wouldn't be a fan, but the 02 and 03 1.6p ones look to be well priced. I've seen a few with decent tax and test too.

    I'd love that yoke. But then again I'm a head banger.400 quid tops though.

    In fairness the interior in those was far better in terms of quality than the current corolla which has a very cheap nasty interior.

    Just looking at it, the wipers are mutilated to take standard blades. They normally take a refill strip

    Common fault is the gearbox. Like hens teeth in scrap yards. Buyer beware, first thing to look out for on the Laguna.

    Not the best of cars but asking price isn't too bad, 12 months NCT, was tested last September...

    Only two months test but 6 months tax (1.1 so not worth a whole lot anyway), €1100 asking price is negotiable. If it checked out an offer of €500 might be enough to test their resolve :pac:

    That car has had a tip at some stage in it's life. The headlights and bumper are from the pre facelift model.

    If I was make a list of the top ten reliable engines, the 4E-FE would feature highly in them.

    Damn that's cheap. I hope these kind of deals are around when I'm ready to buy.

    Had a couple of 2.5TT's, 1JZ-GTE. Always wanted the 4.0 litre, but couldn't bring myself to pay the roadtax! :o
    If I ever get around to it, I'll definitely get one and throw a supercharger on it.
