Not really an automatic though is it
Nor leather interior.


I'd suggest an E46 BMW 320D. You'll get a decently specified automatic saloon for this money, complete with CC and Autobox. might have to have a little leway on the milage though

Ah didn't see Auto Preferred . When I sat in the vRS I found the seats comfier than leather and made of some sort of velour which seems just as easy to wipe clean as leather too so I didn't think that would matter too much .

Im sure that it has a leather interior? Must be the Octavia.

Also, automatic was preferred, not required.

 

[rscosworth]

looking for somthing vectra sized if possible.

320d sounds good, any examples?

cheers

One example that meets your criteria, although it is purple, lol! here

Dump the irrational mileage requirement - people dont generally buy a diesel then do no mileage in it - and get a 320d.
