Title: Unusual purchase offer!!!
Post by bonnietiler on Nov 9^th, 2007, 8:38am

Sadly, had to attend a funeral last week and was a little surprised to find the Funeral Director giving my Scorpio the once over. It's a Black 24v Estate in fairly mint condition...
"If you ever decide to sell just let me know, I know at least 6 funeral directors wh'd be fighting over it!"
Apparently, the Scorpio is one of the only estate cars on the market long enough to collect...well you know what..
They don't like sending a hearse to Old Peoples homes and hospitals and the like so prefer to use an estate.
Strange old world innit!

I seem to recall a lot of funeral directors used black Mk2 Granada Estates for 'collections'.

bonnietiler....that maybe a business oppotunity, a gap in the market ;)

Why not stick an advert in your local paper......
