Searching for automatic

gilfach gray · 9th March 2016, 07:29

Hi folks, I have just joined the club and currently run a 2004 1.8 Connoisseur which has covered 80k mls and is (pretty well) immaculate however old age and failing joints suggest I need to change to an automatic.
Is there a similarly immaculate one out there looking for a new home?
I would prefer leather and low (ish) mileage
I have been looking in Autotrader but no luck so far .

you need to look in the owners private sales if you haven't already, i haven't popped my head in for a while but there's usually some good one's there, with more truth from the member owner than them on ebay, just a thought.

I am still looking for the right automatic to replace my immaculate 1.8 Connie.
All the ones I find on Autotrader are 100s of miles away from N Wales where I live and as I am not in the first (or second ?) flush of youth I cannot consider going to look. My limit would be about Cheshire or Staffordshire.
I would prefer a 2 litre saloon with leather but open to suggestions .

Contact Jules on forum, he often has 1st class examples for sale

Not a 2.0 litre but sounds a nice car, although a bit further south than you may want to travel
