Exactly the same. my dad about 5 years ago bought a 360 limited edition saloon, leather and was so tidy i think he got it for like 100 notes aswell my mum had it for about 2-3 years then got a v70.
But i used to hate it for some reason always wished it was a hatch back, but i would love my mum to still have it now

there is some fairly serious welding needing doing, including a gaping hole. on a flat part thankfully.
feqw more bits but it wont cost much, just doing a perfect job of paint with a good**+ match.. worried.

hmm.
its a good car, the mileage is legit.. or theres a fuckin MASSIVE conspiracy.
it needs £100 over a year to Sail through next mot, and another ton to make nearly concourse.
costs nothing compared to modern.. trainers.

nuff said.

p.s.

its not timing gear rattling but waterpump. t.belt was done last year. (read 'last time the cobwebs were dusted off')
