Hello All
Hi My name is Marcus and I am from Bristol. I purchased on the weekend a 93 Maverick 2.4 as a bit of an ebay whim. I have liked the idea of owning a 4x4 for some time allthough I was mostly looking at big things with V8's in. Unfortunatly my wife will only let me have 1 car with a big engine and I cant part with my 300zx Nissan.
Anyway due to said nissan (300zx) being rubbish on fuel I have always has a cheap run about off ebay as my work car, mainly Vauxhall Carltons as I generally only like to spend 500.00. Well I had recently sold my last Daily Runner (A mondeo) and didnt really need to replace it since my wife has pretty much stopped using her car anyway, but I saw the Maverick for sale and temptation got the better of me. Bored you yet LOL. So to the important stuff my Maverick. She is a 1993 2.4 GLX SWB in Grey (I'm sure it dark green though) I paid a whopping £300.00 and that included 12 months MOT. I expected paying that little for one of these vehicles that I may have been in for some nasty suprises, but their don't seem to be any. There is a small amount or rust on the rear arches (which seems rare from other Mavericks/Terrano's I have seen) The passenger Elec Window doesnt work, small leak in the exhaust and the radio doesnt have a code. Apart from that All is fine. I am chuffed with it TBH, took a little getting used to driving it (its my first high up 4x4 style car) but now i'm really liking it more and more, so much so I though I would join and mingle with fellow enthusiasts. |
