I'm looking for a 4.6 or 4.8is to buy. If anybody has one with LPG that would be even better!
I will also consider a facelift 3.0d sport
I'm located in Sunderland, Tyne and Wear.
Cheers, Graham

If it were my money I'd go for a Le Mans 3.0d.
Sure it doesn't have a V8, but it's not a lot slower (especially if you map it!), looks the same and much cheaper to run.

Graham previously had a Le Mans so definitely look at a 4.8is. Very clean.

I'm thinking of selling up too I'm sorry to say. It's a 53 plate 4.6 is Carbon black edition. Just had MOT (with no issues), drivers switch and cam tensioners replaced.
