Shall I break it ??

[John B]

A neighbour of mine is selling a 2000 2.7 lwb terrano with 120 k on clock as a mot failure with rust so I was thinking of buying it and breaking for parts. What you think do parts for these sell well ? How much is the engine and gearbox worth ?? Any bits that sell well common faults ?? Thanks

If you can get it around the £300-£400 mark you're laughing :clap
Anymore than that and its just a lot of effort for not a lot of money

What is actually wrong with it and the general condition?

Is it worth fixing up yourself?

 

[Terranoman]

Ive got engine here that maybe ok for what you need.Its 2001 tdi when i bought the car was told it missfires under load and was now non runner as not started for 6 months.I put battery on it and it started instantly but when driving does have missfire and some white smoke.(eml is on) I dont have time to look but it maybe something really simple

 

[Terranoman]

How much?

 

[cncfabs]

How much?

£200 collected?

£200 collected?

Now that must be worth a try...
If it doesn't work out, you can still scrap it, then you also have a spare engine to sell.

It depends on how much you want to keep the old girl.

I like to see these trucks on the road, rather than in the breakers yard:thumb2
I hate to see younger cars than my own being broken, but then again, most of them are younger than mine...:lol:lol

But we do need a few, as we all need parts at some time.:augie
