I received this email this morning. Can anyone save this car? Please!! I can't right now, too many others. Please PM me for contact details.

"Following a period of illness and recent death of a family friend,

the opportunity arises for me to acquire a more recent motor, thus

signaling the end of some twenty-six years of continuous Estelle

ownership by various family members.

For sale, complete vehicle

- Estelle 120L Five, 1989 'G' reg, 69000 miles, beige, alloy wheels,

sunroof, radio

- Owned by family since new hence one previous owner.

- Last tax/MOT/on road Jan2007 but 'exercised' on long drive

regularly so can truthfully be described as a runner.

- All seats and interior trim in excellent condition due to careful

use of protective covers.

- Sound (if faded) paintwork, parking ding in front passenger door

visible but not immediately obvious.

Where abouts in the country is it....if it was close to me I may be interested

Hmm... will ask SWMBO

I dont have a SWMBO but this sounds like worth buying as a weekender
