It took me 5 years to stick the ATR on coilovers.

Holy scrap. The stream had 5th gen headlights.

The Odyssey is much cooler, Sam. Still can't work out the prices though, fresh import RA6's are up for £4K. I paid no where near that for mine.

Does it have the 5th gen chocolate box? (Just noticed the tiptronic control )

Was worth it, though, wasn't it?

Possibly. It's hard to make sense of which ones did and didn't. It's the RA6 2nd Gen, so i think it probably does.

Yeah, the looks and handling are spot on. I'm glad i don't use it as a daily anymore though, it would do my head in with all the bumps and potholes on the roads.

Not that it is in your price range but I was right on the verge of buying Nissan Elgrand this week, until we decided that we weren't going on a driving holiday this year

The Elgrand is bloody massive though!

I picked the Odyssey for £1200, i've no idea if this is good or not, the outside is pretty sound and it looks good underneath, drives well (apart from the clunk at the back which hopfully is just a bush somewhere) and is quiet and smooth. It belonged to the dad of the chap i bought it from, was imported in 2007 and he bought it in 2008 and there is some service history, the MOT failures were minor over the last few years and he got stuff fixed, so fingers crossed.

Fooking filthy though, this was rear seats folded down and then the wheel well...

And after lots of scrubbing and the steam cleaner..
