    Kind of rare to see one of these in wagon form...bringing in fair money too! Mum had an SE sedan and it was peppy for the time.

    Got my doors blown off by a white CTS V wagon today, first one I've seen on the road. I need one, badly.

    12 out of 10 doctors agree that if you don't like the V wagon you have no soul.

    We had a Jag club event at his house last Sunday. We got to see all of his very nice cars and talked about his trip. He had a lot of fun and that's the first shooting brake RR I've ever seen in person.

    Great people and a good time!

    I saw one of these at a cars & coffee thing several months ago and the guy driving it was a pro racer. He loved it! It looked pretty impressive though I'm not one of those who are wild about this styling trend. I was OK with the XLR though.

    I was wondering whether a few were made it out alive before the factory closed, I suppose this was the last auction for the factory cars, approx. 30 2012 9-5 Sport Combis were built. A handful were NA specification ..

    Yes. Those wheels look like painted steelies from the early '80s.

    I'm in the market for a new car and the search is not easy so I'm looking for help.

    I'm looking for an AWD wagon with a manual transmission. I have around 17k to spend. Less than 90k miles and 2005 or newer.

    I'm not interested in 1.8t or 3.0 Audi's nor the Subarus.

    I'm aware of the cars relevant cars on autotrader, eBay ect... Any other sources I should be checking out?

    2005-2007 Volvo V70R. Hard to find with low miles and a manual, but they do exist.

    How is the reliability on these? I had a few saab's with turbo'd engines that were a hassle.
