Don't forget though, garages adverts are prepared in advance for publication, they could be up to 6weeks(?) out of date.

The 110Tdi (http://community.webshots.com/photo/97182853/116265290fSNnJP) I used to own had been in Simmonites prior to it ending up at Copley Motors (Halifax LR main-dealer).
Now why it was there I don't know (a comission based sale?)

We bought it from Copley just as it appeared in Simmontes 'LRO'adverts. I even remembered looking at it in Simmonites whilst we were searching.

Clue; the LR's I've seen & fancy on Simmonites web-site are green

Post by: iianorthants on April 26, 2005, 08:34:02: someone in the local maindealer around here was offered a TD5 disco, unfortunatly they had just been looking at it's twin brother down the road in a local garage for about Ã‚Â£3000 less. their excuse was that it would have come with a full maindealer check and warrenty, the car was only two years old and still had a year MW left :( not worth Ã‚Â£3000 hike in price for shipping 5 miles down the road.
