2 Terrano Family
Thanks to all that were looking out for a decent Terrano for my Grandad, especially Thomas61 who did link me to this one even though I'd already seen it
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/152297205735 Looking at how truly immaculate this one was, I decided to take a punt, had a budget of £1800 in mind for it and ended up winning it last minute in a Costa in York paid £138 quid more than I wanted but to be honest expected this to go for way way over 2k I've not seen the car yet in the flesh but put a deposit down on it, should be collcting in a weeks time as the sellers sister had a stroke yesterday so he's had to leave home for a few days to go look after her. Looking at it thoroughly on the pics it really does look well looked after, interior is tidy as I've seen one, door shuts have no corrosion which is pretty common on the newer ones, front bumper supports are intact and not rotten away and the towbar looks nice and black So all seems good so far MOT history failure in september for a front fuel system component leaking but I've been advised that it was professionally repaired but I'll be the judge of that Fingers crossed its a good un', hope you guys don't mind another Project Thread , will stay pretty much standard as it's for my Grandad, only jobs I want to do when I get it is; Replace all fluids Adjust torsion bars to raise the front level Fit a set of AT's to it Given I was allowed a 3k budget I'd say I've done pretty well there

Reverse Reverse Reverse!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The guy was getting very very pushy earlier for a deposit, no soon as I'd done a car text check that horrified me, Elty and Bigbunny came to my rescue with the attached picture. Turns out the mileage is dodgy and the car has been subject to a total loss and been re-plated at some point, even when confronted with the eBay screenshots confirming to the other lady that he was going to end the listing, he never did and also lied to me beforehand there was no apology. Got very very shirty with me when I started to provide the evidence and told him about the Facebook page he started threatening me with "legal action" Thankful that my boys had my back here cheers Craig and Elt, I don't use Facebook but glad they do on this occasion. Be careful out there guys!!!!! The hunt continues..............
