dont do it mate,i work on them regular,auto gearbox on a 1.6 petrol will thirsty,crap gearbox,it wont be as new,but look for a diesel turbo one,far better a 306 1.9 td,hdi are ok,but have known them to crack heads,and electronic injectors can also be a problem :-k

winchman:
Its too expensive, do they really need an auto?
The diesel is a much better car, why nor go for a 406?
My 406 diesel 7 seater estate is the Best £700 I have ever spent

JumboBeef:
Thanks for the advice.  The owner has dropped his price, still wants £1,850 for it though.....

Look at this one on eBay: Same model and colour but one year older and 13,000 more on the clock and already at £1,550 so maybe £1,850 is fair.........?

Thanks for your input (and everyone else's): I agree the diesel could well be better but my folks don't do many miles per year (last year it was around 2,000).  I've also had others say the petrol is OK, so I'm just not sure what to do really.
