Facelift 2.0 V6? - Page 2

FrazzleTC · 7th April 2015, 12:54

The 2.0 was available as special order only, later in the mark 1 75s, and throughout the entire mark 2 range. I've owned a 2.0, and they're nice enough, but, I wouldn't bother paying that much to own a facelift. Far nicer owning an earlier car, which feels more special.

Getting quite hard to find a good one now though

I have been stalking the members cars for sale for about 2 months.

Lots of battered wrecks on the usual internet sites, lots of manuals, lots of tourers, lots of spares or repairs.

I would rather have a Mk1, preferably pre project drive but im not having much luck finding one at the moment.

This one just caught my attention as something a bit special.

Looks beautiful despite no leather. If you like it go for it

I did spot that, lovely car.

I don't want to seem fussy but gold really isn't my colour, or Wedgewood, or the mushy pea green colour

OK, so I am a bit fussy lol

Looks like they've inserted a standard pre-formatted description, states heated electric seats but the bottom of the drivers seat appears to have a manual seat adjuster.

It also says it has cruise but there are no buttons on the steering wheel.

Its a standard 2004 facelift Connoisseur.

Cloth manual non-heated seats.

The only extra options are the auto transmission and the 2.0 V6 engine.

This is definately a 2.0 Litre facelift V6. Looking at the build records, there were in fact a total 68 facelift 2.0 petrol cars produced, so not many it has to be said. Some were tourers too.
