I was after that terrano in kings lynn right.How much did you pay for it if you dont mind me asking.Buy the way ive got doors but not in white.

Hey Fabs!

Yea thats the one! I got it for £150 less than the starting bid as nobody bid on it. Its owned by a woman who pulls a horse box with it. Rick has also offered me a door so I'll see what I end up needing once I get it home!

Thats pretty much what i offered cheap truck at that.Will be interested to see some more pics when you get it back.Looks to have been hit fairly hard new floor and sill at least by the look of it chassis might need a tweak as been hit low and had side steps to take the force into chassis.are you driving it back

s2k_adz · 30-01-2013, 19:52

Yea driving it back mate. The step isnt bent at all so pretty sure chassis wont be bent at all. The step is only thin so I would have thought that would have bent way before the chassis? I'll post photos up anyways! The floorpan should pull out fine too I recon!

welcome to the world of the terrano.

Where abouts in wales are you?

Hey Guys!

After the Terrano van fell through I managed to pick up a 123k mile 1996 SWB TDi. Picked it up two days ago from 190 miles away and it came back fine returning about 28mpg at 75-80mph.

Today I went to start it from cold. It started fine but as soon as I got to 1200-1500rpm the engine check light came on and the revs dropped to idle. This happened 3 or 4 times and then cleared. Seems OK now but will scan it for codes on Monday!

Happy with is so far! First job is to replace the one leaky fuel pipe and sort the slipping PAS belt! Then EGR delete and change all fluids and filters!

That's OK mate I'm sure I will sort it and I can always ask on here!

We will need to have an offroad meeting though!

I've been meaning to ask! I bought the car to tow a big car trailer around but also want to do some offroading! Would I be OK towing a 2 tonne trailer with no ARB on the rear?

s2k_adz · 22-03-2013, 11:39

Anyone?

Went for my first offroad trip on the weekend! Just a little bit of softcore messing around! Will post up my pics! I defo need mud tyres!

I'd be inclined to leave it on for the towing, then when you go offroading, just undo one drop link

Just one bolt and the effect is exactly the sme, them bolt it up again when you get home, simples
