I quite like the look of the low roof MWB and most of 'em had twin SLDs. A lot seemed to be in metallic paint too. When I got my first Mk7 I very nearly got one myself but just missed out on it. Now, this one of yours has some good features. A 350 but with FWD (4.54 diff.) and, apart from aircon, has all the toys (even BlueTooth). Dead easy to add cruise, as you know! And it's a Turkish van so the rust might not be so bad. But best of all, it's a 2006 model, so the road tax is only £140 a year!

Yes I know.

Money or property, as painful as it is but we all know the answer. :cry:

On a positive note.

Just paid 140 quid for a year's tax.
High spec bcm, electrics, screen.
Lots spent, new clutch and turbo and egr etc, receipts there for 1000 ish spent.
Twin doors.
T350 :shock:
130ps which I hope will soon be 140 or more, he said it was remapped already which I plan on removing.

Bad bits, it's silver and quite rough.

I'd seen a few later FWD 350s but I never knew they'd produced them from the get go in 2006.
