Well started off offering to help sell this for a caravanning pal, then sold the dream to
myself.

53 plate silver sport, 3.0 manual.

Now i realise not only how poorly our 2.7 had slowly become but that the old patrol
was never right either!

Its not chipped to my knowledge, but it goes well, cant wait to get the tin tent on back.

97k miles.
owned by two pals from independent caravan rallying club think from new.

was hoping for a 55 plate to get middle 3 pointer but history on this a decider!

Well has same head unit have in 52 plater and doenst appear to scan full fm band
so a bluetooth dab was on wish for other. noted this one has wheel mounted
control for head.

for a sport impressed at trim, half leather and finally have air con again AND no
dodgy sunroof!

tyres arent bad but are a mix of road types so maybe get some more ATs.

it has a 13 pin tow elec so seen a neat plug in to convert to twin 7s, with tails to
have to secure.

not sure about steps yet, they seem slimmer and have been repaired so might swap
over the ones on 2.7. mrs uses them when putting kids into their seats.

oh no disrespect to legion but the poppy is coming off. Will still be paying in....

for now just enjoying that umph. and then must swap my fitted mats over as still
has that awful beige carpet!

Almost identical to mine :clap
I have the same side steps but between you and me i'm thinking about steeling Daemo's design for replacements :augie
The only other difference I can see is I've got roof bars. oh and yours looks cleaner and your bumpers line up:doh

well the old 2.7 had a wishlist but always needed something else doing.

reckon got a better base point here, close call, was already toying with leaving
the brand. cant be first who said love em but dont want end up hating too,
familiarity breeds and all that. yeah saw a tidy ssangyong rexton, cheap too
but lack of an owner club was the smell the coffee moment plus eemed more
of a 4wd mpv than a mpv 4wd ;)

doubt it will lifted as family tintent tug, dont want too loose my new found torques
to taller tread, but there is the old one still, do i sell it strip it or keep n mod it?

would need to what can get on 17s, unless keep 16s.

did hope would have roof rails, funny as bought some for first t2, but sold it for the trol
and sold bars to a member in Greece, then got second t2 again could have used them.

think as no sunroof will get some bars, always fancied using 3dr bar kit, so end up
with 3 bars, unless dreamt that one!

looking at ice first, maybe a hands free kit for the odd call.

will get more pix, to date these are the seller's.

I like it, seats are a nice contrast against the rest of trim.

You'll want to get rid of that awfull head unit and especially the surround with hazzard switch in it, yuk, I'll take it off your hands if you like :sly:D:lol:lol

well it came with a fresh 12 month ticket, but had it to my tester today.

he gave it new oil n filter, and fuel filter, already has a k&n air filter.

thinks in fair condition.

so its next job is the twin axle to coast, on tin tent its got new xl/hd tyres this week
and fitted an alko 3004 hitch to replace a greased hitch it had.
