What Reg Did The High Tax Start

[firebobby]

OK guy's, an 05 plate with 130k on it. How much do you reckon it's worth and is it worth a look with 130k on it?

130k on these is nothing as long as it's not been abused, does it have good history, oil/filters changes etc.
as for the price, it depends on the condition and spec...does it have man steps and manly A/C for instance.

It should be clean underneath at that age, but have a good check for rust, it may have spent years by the sea

surely greener to keep old motors running than building new ones, as how ever clean they
are theres still all that polution from production.

suppose could run a fiesta, ditch the caravan, take foreign holdidays, spend our money
overseas, plus aircraft polution contributing too,.....

:clap:clap So true..

Basically the tax dates are...
registered before 1 March 2001 £220
registered before 23 March 2006 £280
registered before 23 March 2006 £475
registered before 31 March 2010 £840 if you could get one of this age!!

Well this is it but not too sure about it, certainly can't go to see it until after the weekend. The dealer assured me that it's got a good service history with it but then he would wouldn't he.

im off until next Thursday, give me a tinkle if you fancy a drive out. It reads well, looks well but it just needs scrutinizing. True the mileage is high, so id be looking for worn prop shafts, UJ's, clutch, gears etc etc. as above though, if its been looked after then itll be fine. For me however, it seems too expensive for such high mileage. Sure, then ENGINE will be ok, but its everything else. For example what if the handbrake cables are worn? that's £150 there.

From the pic's it looks tidy:augie what are you doing with your T2 Jim ? you could pull the engine out of it & keep it as a spare aswell as other parts & weigh in the chassis & shell then you'll have your own parts store to keep you going for quite a few years:augie

 

[jims-terrano]

Not really got the room to store things like that but I like your thinking. Thinking along the lines of robbing the roof rails though unless CNC comes up with a set but that's only if I get another. I've seen another with lower miles but it's an auto. What ever I can't do anything this weekend I'm just too busy.
Mine has private plates on which I want to keep so I'll probably just buy the new one and set the ball rolling to get plates swapped over before selling mine on. Assuming of course that I do get another.
I'd not thought about an Auto before, don't know a great deal about them other than the towing capacity is not as big.

Where are you seeing the mileage, I can't see that :nenau

I phoned them, I think there's a lot of dealers tend to hide the mileage that way.

Oh, so what's the mileage then Jim

I'm miffed!!!! I'd seen another Terrano for sale but couldn't get to see it this weekend because I was on a First Aid course. It's SOLD!!!!!!!!! but I passed the course though it doesn't make me feel any better. So far all the other's for sale at the moment seem to be rotten. Decided the 05 plate is a bit too many miles on it for my liking.
