    I'll attach a pic. It's not of my car but the very same model and colour. I can take pic's tomorrow if needed.
    It's a 2.3 20valve 5cylinder turbo. It puts out 240 bhp. Absolute joy to drive.

    I have no intention of buying your car as I couldn't afford the running costs.

    however.

    Can I take it for a burn anyway ?

    :)

    please

    I would LOVE an 850 T5

    Oh, is it a saloon or estate? estate only for me

    Oh, of course you can............not! Ya, they're a lovely car alright. It's not as bad as you'd expect to run. We often had 35mpg+ on the way to Dublin or into Limerick. The trip computer actually makes you watch the mpg and improve it while driving.
    And it's a saloon, I think it's sexier than the estate, although I wouldn't say no to a yellow one with black wheels.........

    That is such a shame it's not an estate. I've always had one eye looking out for a bargain T5 estate, and this came soooo close....

    Good luck with the sale.
