That first one does look fantastic pal, hpi it, have good look for rot and crash damage, if its ok, bite his hand off
 
your right thats drop dead georgous.
but.
3k is what ive got he would have to bring it down a bit.
And I wouldnt like to hoover it out after my very molty golden labarador had been in it not to mention food stains from kids and using it as a works canteen.so im thinking leather uphostery for quick wipe over.
I think we need the roof bars rather than a roof rack as i could fit a roller on the back end to ease putting ladders on.
and I would like a towbar already fitted. not to tow a caravan but I want a big tent and mybe buy a trailer.
im planning on going to see this car130811887420.
it looks very clean,its just serviced with full 12 mth ticket good milage and he said 2.6 would do the deal.
its got all we need from a truck already. if you look at the tow bar it looks like new which is a good indication of the underside of the car.
what do you think?
cheers steve
 
glad I joined this site before i brought one.i will take everything into consideration.
I dont think the time of year is helping as all the dealers expect people to dash out and get a cheap 4x4 for the freeze.
maybe if i hold on a while and the weather doesnt come ill get a better deal.

I am tempted offer my full buget of 3k on your last suggestion.it looks like it will last me 10 years

That looks like a cracking truck mate, keep us posted !
 
Be careful entering doncaster with 3k its like bandit country:lol
Where about in donny is it?
 
not even tires oil etc?? or are you talking about non service parts?

When I wrote "other than service items" in my last post I meant that I didn't include oil, filters etc. not even fuel:augie

It hasn't needed tyres during this time, and the ones on will last a few more seasons yet.

The battery has a few years left in it, also the discs, pads and rear drums will be fine.

I adjusted the front wheel bearings 18 months ago, still originals too.
 
Bought mine two weeks ago off Ebay. Looked for months for a good one.

It was an 04 3Litre auto (wanted auto for towing / manouvering large van). It was the SVE so black leather (leather looks like new unlike a lot of them)auto changer etc. Black leather meant silver dash not plastiwood.:lol

Got it for £3K with 12 months MOT and 6 months Tax.

Have been very pleased. Only problem so far is sheared pin on Transfer box stick preventing getting low ratio. I like to have a good fettle anyway. Think dealers are putting on winter premium but not getting it tho.

Good luck.
 
Iv got 2 of the 2.7's I have a Maverick and a Terrano. Love them both paid £1,200 for the Mav on a 97 plate and £1,500 for the Terry on an X plate.
I run them both on cooking oil the Mav on about 30% and the Terry at about 80% as its got a better starter motor on it.

One of them is being taken off the road in Jan to be fully tricked up, its going to have a lot of time spent on it and all the bits i want to get done, my only problem is i just can not decide which one yet :doh
 
beers on me

got one! at last ive got a terrano,
merry christmas everyone.
steve jac n skye.
 
its christmas. it feels like christmas and to top it all off the terrano is a wicked xmas pressie.
weve been stuck in crappy stoke on trent for 5 weeks without a car.
tommorow were having a bod up buxton to get some fresh sping water.(we brew beer and that water is great)and a good bit of fresh air and away from the shops.
we will perhaps cut through a few green lanes on the way home.
as for the truck.
it ended up I couldnt get the 3k together (xmas time)
and I got the green over champagne 2.7 se+ 2001 for 2.4 (maybe over priced but wasnt prepared wait till the winter was over to get one)
I was very scared on buying as I know nothing about mechanics.
I was concerned about the clocks saying 47k miles. i was concerned about the smoke out the exaust on starting.
but it seems ok.
the clocks had been replaced as i know its a common fault with these trucks.
its done 87k got more paper work than comes with my house.
it drove mint all the way home and i love it to bits.
and a big bonus is the fact its got 7 seats. its been the first time ive been able to fetch all my grandchildren and kids in one go
(44 with 3 grandkids should be against the law)
