    HELP LOOKING FOR A NICE TOURING PLEASE???

    As above gents, my brother in law who was in the bike accident has asked me for my help to find another touring after he had to sell the e46 320d touring as it was manual and he was in hospital for a few weeks and is still getting better.
    He has lost the use of his left arm so an auto is a must, it will be getting modified by a company that caters for people with disabilities, he wants another touring, for bikes/kids, diesel would be nice and a sport, but not a must, and dosent want to go over 4k so I'm looking for 320d tourings for about 4500. I'm not crazy on 4 cylinder petrol as although I have one, hear nothing but horror story's about, and don't want the guy sitting at the side of the road in one!
    A bmw would be nice as he loved the last one, but not a must.
    Thanks for any help/input/suggestions in advance men,
    Cheers, mick.
    Also available on the blower, 0861938880.

    Found a Volvo 2003 in gal way fully loaded with 57k on it.
    Gonna head down and collect it for him sometime this week, then it has to be adapted to drive with one hand.i know it's 03 but it's only over a full service with t/b and at 57k, it won't need much for the future,
    My brother in law is happy, that's the main thing and glad to be able to do something for him, he's after having a hard time this year.
