Asking Too Much?
Still looking for a low mileage 260 with LPG, preferably Black/Green/X-Power Grey....Can't be too difficult, surely? (Oh, and under 6k would be good)
150k on the Black Pearl now and the old girl needs to slow down a bit, but I just can't jump ship unless the sails are bigger, if you get my drift
Maybe now is a good time to buy a lottery ticket....................more chance of winningOriginally Posted by Mean Green V6

Wow,thanks, that was quick! Ticks almost all the boxes except colour - can't just go for it because of the gas - this will be a car for life, so I want to get it right.
Having said that, I see Stefano's gorgeous Merlin out and about now and again and that's the same colour...........
it's a fabulous colour,Mirage I think, and the ideal colour that I was inititially looking for.Wow,thanks, that was quick! Ticks almost all the boxes except colour - can't just go for it because of the gas - this will be a car for life, so I want to get it right.

I think the problem you'll have is there are relatively few with LPG for a start, and those with LPG would tend to be higher mileage because people that had the systems fitted did so because they thought it would save them in the long run based on the miles they do.
Mine had lpg when I bought it and had 85k on it. It now has 106k.
So you may have to be patient for the right car to come along that meets your criteria, but it may never happen!

Yep, I've been looking for a couple of years now and only seen three, one of which - an X-Power Grey Mk1 with 34k was the right one, but he sold it to a mate
At least I've got my V6 for now
I'd like to know where this character keeps his full size spare wheel, on the back seat? The LPG bullet tank in my car takes up most of the boot space and is only 40 litres.
Also his claims of a possible 50 mpg equivalent are a little absurd and can be challenged by the figures quoted in his own ad.
I'm telling Granny etc. when I remind you that LPG at 69p per litre might be half the cost of petrol at £1.37 but that doesn't mean you can double up on your mpg reurn because the LPG is less efficient
