im intrested in this vehicle on ebay Item number: 170490266216 . i made the mistake of getting rid of my maverick and buying a saab. the saab is nice and also fast but it aint 4 wheel drive. i need to know if the vehicle im intrested in is belt or chain and will it need swaping if its a chain?

lovely vehicle but i would offer a lot less then that, i'm sure you could get a newer model for that price.

 

[(RIP) PLANK]

i don't know about that, the price of Terrano's seems to be very high att he moment! which is both good and bad depending on buying or selling

well its a base model, not even any side steps, and I usually interpret "relisted due to timewasters" as "buyer turned up and realised it was a pile of poo" :lol

The 99 plate is higher mileage but better spec and has a 2-owner history....price not far out at all IMHO.

Seems a bit high to me check this out

Offer him £1750 for a quick sale and it's got lots less miles too:thumb2

i was only using as example as there was a few priced cheaper.

i agree read between the lines and there is nothing as good as seeing it before buying.

if still larson is interested defintly offer much less then the asking price and see what happens.

thanks for the links but in in the north and my saab only returns 30 mpg so dont want to go too far to look.. although it will get me there fast:lol

dont you get spanked by the tax man if you get caught running cooking oil? if so it will be no good for me as i come in at 2/3 in the morning after catching bunnys

A million threads you can search on this and the answer is NO. In June 2007 the revenue introduced a 2500 litre per annum threshold, at or below which duty is not payable. If you exceed that figure by even one litre though, duty is payable on THE LOT.
