straight  swop my TD5 XS manual 01 70k, for this 00 ES premium V8 autowith just 36k on the clock, done the deal with a dealer so have a warrenty included, evan had a full tank of petrol...

must say i really love it, the V8 is much nicer to drive than the TD5 loads more power and sooooo smooth, the auto box changes gear smooth as silk..hers a few pics, colour is burnt orange but dosent show very well in a pic, looks like the RR sport colour that was on the poster and adds..

cheers

cheers i like the colour more than our old one, it looks a lot nicer in the flesh, its like a metalic copper, after driving a TD5 manual and a V8 auto back to back, theres no comparison lts a completly differant driving experiance..

Ohhh that colour  :(biglove):  - my previous Td5 was the same, Kinversand is the official name, and only one shade of it to (helps for colour matching  :oops: ), and a V8..............Suggs, you must be loving it ?

And you really got a straight swap at a stealers - what a pukka result !!!

yes really a straight swop, both cars book about the same money, so the dealer thought he would sell a TD5 quicker than a V8, but i was suprised he didnt want a few hundred quid just to do the deal, but he didnt, i love it, its a stunning looking car in the flesh great colour..
