63RedBrier Posted August 15, 2022 Share Posted August 15, 2022 Price seems reasonable to me... Interior (maybe just seats?) clearly needs to be replaced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or, Maybe to keep the kids in the back seat ? Somebody once told me that if you were planning a cross country trip with your wife and a couple of young screaming kids, consider driving a sedan with a roll-up divider window --- and also take along a 22 year old nanny . But it seems to me your wife might become a bit testy, sitting in back with just the kids? while you entertain the sweet young nanny? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
