Thanks Guys.

They are quite rare anyway, but this one is a Veloce, with the 16V 1.9TD instead of 8V, 6 speed gearbox, lower stiffer suspension, Veloce only wheels, and a special order light Grey leather interior.
It really is lovely, has only done 105K miles and has already had the Cambelt etc replaced.

It is not slow by any means with the Diesel, it 'spools up' like a V6 because of the Torque rather than revs like a 4cyl petrol.

I appear to have picked it up a little cheap, but unfortunately I know I'm going to have to sell it when I get my newer discovery. It just won't fit everything I need to carry, and certainly won't tow my boat.

I'm going to hopefully enjoy a couple of months tearing around in it, and tidying it up just a little to increase it's value as much as possible.

But I already know it's going to break my heart to sell it.
