Hello all.
Late entrant to the Excel seeking club - but it's in my head now - so I have to pursue it - having just had a drive in one.
I am after a black/blue one in good condition with leather interior if possible.
Willing to travel if needed - I live in Northumberland - so travelling to get anywhere is a given...
Many thanks if you can help
Joss

Re: Also looking for an Excel!
Welcome Joss, I hope you find the car you desire!
My car would be spot on for your colour preference - Midnight Blue - but I'm not selling to anyone I'm afraid! It's not a common colour (in an already uncommon car), mid- and light blue are more common, not many in black either, white and red seem to be the most popular colours.
Does "good condition" mean more of a tidy everyday car, immaculate show-winner, or somewhere in between?

It's a fair way from you but looks good.

Re: Also looking for an Excel!
Thanks for the replies folks.
The Scottish blue one has been withdrawn from sale.
I am looking for one with no significant work needed and looks tidy.
The search continues!
