NO LONGER NEEDED E85 6 cylinder manual, max £2k budget

[Mr.Croc]

As title says, have a maximum of £2k budget and looking for ideally a 2.5 but would consider 2.2 (happily consider the 3.0 but would be surprised if I can find one in this budget!)

Absolute requirements:

Fully working roof with no leaks
no rusty arches/patches (scratches are fine)
Manual gearbox
Interior that doesn't looks like 2 lions have fought in it
Some mot, ideally 4 months +
Not been written off

Am I dreaming or are there some options out there?

Based in south wales but happy to travel anywhere for the right car

Check the for sale section Ideal car if you know where your spanner is…

Well over your budget, £3500, but perhaps a bit of negotiation could be done. https://www.facebook.com/marketplac...place_top_picks&referral_story_type=top_picks

Don't wish to rain on your parade but...you'll be struggling to tick all those boxes for your budget.
Just put mine up for sale, meets your needs apart from price and rusty arches (easily repaired).

I dunno, I don't think your that far out on price. Keep an eye out and you might well be able to get a 2.2 for low £2k's, especially in the height of winter and considering you've not said you're chasing low miles, high spec or mint condition. Less even, if it needs some jobs doing. Bargains do come up, especially on here.

I heard my old car is coming up for grabs (pictured on the right). It won’t be as shiny as it was then - October last year - but should tick all your boxes. Currently in Colchester. DM if you’d like me to enquire.

I got a 2.5si for a little over budget at £2500, Ticked all of my above boxes and more, well looked after by previous owner. Absolutely love the car and cannot wait to use it in summer!
