The ones on ebay i have on my watch list but zzumerzzet is too far away for me. I love the Elite but the distance and the autobox are a no no. Ill happily travel 60-70 miles while im in plaster but i cant go a lot further.
Signums are wonderful and the Mrs loves them too but the lack of 5 seats is a pain. We have 3 kids.

worth a suggestion - i was going to offer you try mine if you were'nt sure on size /space ?

I think you can have 5 seats in the siggy, could be wrong though

Dez, thanks for the offer mate, would love to see the car if youre around Ipswich at any time. Are the back seats always 2 seaters or can you get a three?

it HAS 3 rear seats but the middle one is an occaisional one only about 10 - 11" wide so ok for short trips and lighter occupants

if you are travelling any distance then 3 people would be a squeeze = but if you mainly transport 2 +2 then its ideal

We of ten use the full rear seat so it looks like its going to have to be a Vectra. Im not upset by that in the slightest, im a bit annoyed that the SRi i saw has been taken off sale due to a misfire. Its the sweetest looking car and clean too. Theres a nice gold SXi on fleabay but i dont know how good the gold will look in the metal. Anyone seen it?

the golds a very pretty car and a bit of a rarity

give the garage who's taken the car off the market to give you a call and first refusal on when they have it repaired - at least then you will have first dibs on the car afterwards
