Hello you lot!

(and before anybody gets excited I'm not selling my S70R! :haha: )

I'm after a fairly cheap 850 estate not bothered whether auto or manual, but preferably with the following:

- around 100K miles (not starship mileage i.e. 150K plus)
- FVSH or at least FSH
- no HPI rejects!
- prefer not to have ex-plod but would consider
- no major defects engine or bodywork

That's pretty much it - anything else is a bonus, but I am looking near the lower end of the market price-wise so have to be flexible - offer would be around £1800-£2000 to give you an idea.

Can anyone point me in the right direction please? :)

Well I can try, got a bargain with Amber by waiting didn't I? ;)

Might even consider a less-desirable one (i.e. high miles FSH) or poor bodywork etc if I can't find anything straight.

I'll wait and see :) If nowt, then I'll save a few quid more! What prices have you seen them go for recently? (i.e. cheapest)

£2500 is the cheapest I have seen of late. why does it HAVE to be an estate?
