Hi tiggerlit.There is one on E'bay at present at Jubilee Garage,London Road,Sandbach,Cheshire. A two owner Black Metallic 2.3 16v Scorpio Ultima Auto Estate with 130,000miles on. The last owner was a Policeman (10yrs) it comes with a lot of paperwork etc.
Tidy car,lovely finish on the paintwork but needs a little TLC & a few bits looking at. The roof doesn't work but is water tight. It has been a Classified Advert since July last year. I think it is overpriced at £1395.00 I was offered it at £1295.00 before Christmas with no PX. I was mulling it over and scanning the sites then I found the one that I have down in Reading(125,000miles on it) Metallic Pale Blue (Cuirass)and got it for not a lot of money. The guy had bought a 97 Mercedes E320 Estate(215,000 miler) and needed to move it on. I spent on having the two door locks & the tailgate lock removed and rebuilt.,and I have had a Witter Tow-Bar and Twin Electrics fitted. A few bits need addressing but in essence it is a Very nice 14yr old car. It turns heads and gets people asking;What is it?,it looks American.                                                                    I am chasing a 2.9 24v that needs some looking at,if I don't go with it I may go and haggle deeper on the Black Metallic one,if it is still there after this weekend.
Hampshire to Cheshire is a nice run out up to the M5 near Birdlip Hill and up onto the M6.I'd guess 100miles and back. I covered 215miles and back for mine,then went down on National Express Coaches to collect it on the 29th December.They are becoming a little like Rocking Horse Muck at present; in any worthwhile condition.

hi thanks for the reply yeah i had seen it on ebay but you are looking at a 8 hour round trip have you gone to see it then? as it would be silly to buy a car without seeing it if you know what i mean but that car does keep haunting me lol. i thought it was over priced too wondered if he would take a grand cash for it?
i was looking at the mercedes estates too but i think that once you have a scorpio you dont want another type, just something about them
are you from down south too???

Hi tiggerlit.You were tapping away while I was making a small amendment to the one that you must have seen by now. No I travelled down from Upholland in Lancashire to Sandbach,40 odd miles,50 mins cumfy in the T5.
If you want to chat about the Sandbach car PM me with a phone number,I have driven it. I have quizzed the guy at the garage,long established family business. He comes across as straight as you will find without the obvious 'Arfa Daley' classic likeable rogue banter,his name is John.
