Hello to all, just purchased my first Terrano 99 2.7 SWB to replace vans that I destroy regularly by spending my life up and down country tracks.

Very pleased with it but for a clunking at slow speed full lock and needing to change drive belts as they look knackered

Look at the workshop downloads for your first fix. streering stops, 2mins max. get yourself a manual downloaded from Briggies site for free R20 model. lot of members near to you David.

I am going to be using this vehicle for work and want to remove the rear seats and bulk head/ply line the rear, has anyone done this?

96terrano · 10-10-2012, 11:24

ive removed the rear seats from a swb and they are quite simple, you should of just bought a Terrano van

think you'll need to make a plywood floor too

these are the vans

I knew about the vans, just couldnt find one in my price range

I ended up with a black 1999 2.7 Tdi, full service history and 3 owners 100000 mls for £1400. Not sure whether that was good price or not but it does have a full years MOT and 6 months rent

stinka · 10-10-2012, 12:38

sound price if its rot free

Any bubbling on front wings around wheel arches ? or on sills particularly rear of ?

I have the bolt in bit for leveling the floor and the fitted mat for the rear of a SWB van somewhere in my garden. I did this the other way round

Welcome to the forum mate I know Kings Bromley, we occasionally have to go to Abbots Bromley for work training at Blithfield Education Centre.

My boss drinks in the Goats Head there if you know it

I'm based in Walsall so not a million miles away

That would be ideal, what would you be looking for?

(RIP) PLANK · 10-10-2012, 16:43

I won't be able to look for it until after the weekend, but when i do (assuming i can find it) you can have it if you can arrange your own collection

Moochin · 10-10-2012, 16:46

That would be superb, many thanks
