Default Swap my factory spec classic for better MPG car

I will ad pictures later today (maybe tomorrow morning)

I have been made to move offices from my front room to my company HQ. This means that my 0 mile commute has turned into a 40 mile a day one.

Due to this I am looking to swap my beautiful classic for a diesel or good MPG fairly modern car.

My classic is a UK2000 Turbo. It was bought by a man as a retirement present to himself. He spent his time between Italy and Surrey and the car was used as a tourer between the two places.
It has been maintained to a very high standard and its factory spec. I mean total factory most of the warning stickers are still on it.

It comes with complete history, even the 1999 sales brochure is in there.
It has stone chips from its motorway journeys but apart from that its lovely.

It still has the black air intake, black wing mirrors and orange grill intakes as per factory, most now days have been colour coded.
The only non standard part is a CD player.
It would be a solid base for a project but if I am honest I would like to htink that someone would continue to maintain it like I have. Its not far off a modern classic, and how many RS turbos, GT turbos etc do you see that are mint now days??

Anyways:
UK2000 Turbo
Green
115k (all documented miles with cambelts done etc)
I think its 217bhp, but its as factory no mods at all
FSH.

Give me a day or so and I will ad pictures, But in the meantime any sensible trades will be considered.

Did you manage to get some pics of this car yet?

I currently drive an 04 plate Alfa Romeo 156 1.9JTD, I average 59.9mpg on motorway/dual caridge way journies. I dunno if this interests you?

Its a great car, but I work about 2 minutes from my house now so all I use it for is a run about at the weekend/after work. I would prefer a car that makes the journey a bit more lively

What kind of price would you value your car at? and if your interested we can talk figures from there?

I will get the pictures tomorrow, I have been a bit lazy and very busy the last few days. I value the classic at about £4k. I know it sounds rich but its one of the few I know of that has had nothing done to it and still looks factory.
