[EDIT] Now on the search for a 2.5 Turbo instead. :)

Hi everyone,

So, I sold my 2.5 and now I'm after a 3.0R Spec B.

Looking at getting one which is 2007+

Must be Auto, hoping for silver, sedan and in-built Sat Nav.

If you know of one for sale or you're looking at selling, please send me a PM!

Can't get a spec b in auto mate, you're looking for a 3.0R.

I'm with you- I know GTBs came in auto options, but I didn't think the 3rb's did!

3.0R-B. Was manual only.

3.0R spec B had the auto option from my06 onwards.

Just have a look at carsales.

Maybe you all own 3R's that have been modded with black leather and bilsteins?

I guess that could be the case with the 20 odd Auto MY07+ 3.0R Spec.B's on carsales aswell

There's one or two I'd consider which are on carsales at the moment. I saw and drove a nice one a couple of months ago which was in my budget but I hadn't sold my car at that point. I'd consider a 3.0R premium but I'm not thrilled by the cream interior.

I might have to go without sat nav and install at a later point. Would rather get a well looked after car even if it doesn't have sat nav.

Jarrod, are you looking at selling or just mentioning that you have an auto Spec B?

Satnav should be a bonus not a prerequisite IMO
