    Prefer a 900 series or V90 estate, engine or transmission isnt really important but i quite like the straight 6 auto. Id prefer black but a dark colour for sure.

    Just a big summer cruiser i can tart up and flog later on really.

    Looks really tidy mate, good find. So are you leaving it standard, or are you going to play with it?
