82k on the clock and almost rustfree. Wasn't too bothered about the MPG as I only do about 1000 miles a year ( most of it off road or too the tip ).
Had an auto before and it would do 25+ but you had to drive like a fanny i got agood 15 unless i hoofed it then 10 - 12 was great fun for the money.

My trusty Diesel is now up for grabs with 12months MOT.
rebuilt pump and alternator also a new battery

open to sensible offers for quick sale. Not too sure what it is worth but the engine box etc great.
I'll be swapping the wheels n tyres to the new one and the plate. but roof rack, snorkel will stay on it.

I'll put a full list of good and not so good point on soon.

the chap i bought the new one from is eagar to export it being a diesel....

I tried buying on to mod and so keep the truck on the road...............guess what?
They are mucho rare :doh
