Lankytim Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 Anybody interested in buying my 2.5td XM exclusive? MOT until March (I think) Volvo 960 wheels, new front tyres, rears nearly new, new front brakes and rear pads, droplinks, rear brake pipe, Good interior, body good apart from various small dints and scratches, but still looks smart. 209k but drives brilliantly. Needs sill welding on passenger side, a patch, the rest of the sills and underside are A1. I've driven this all round the U.K and it's been fabulous, plus it runs happily on 50ppl veg oil making it very cheap to run. This is an absolute weapon for towing.Just remembered, the ABS light was on, but it's been bypassed, think it's a sensor, but I never got round to fixing it. This also comes with a fuckton of spares too, bumpers, lights, fuel pumps....Price. £700ono, collection from Stoke on Trent. Sad to see it go... but I fancy a change..

Lacquer Peel Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 Do like, but the roof is too short and the back not square enough. Is the 2.5 TD a champion on veg? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lankytim Posted September 30, 2015 Author Share Posted September 30, 2015 How would the raffle work? I haven't really been paying attention Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonathan_dyane Posted September 30, 2015 Share Posted September 30, 2015 Looks lovely! Shame I don't need another... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
purplebargeken Posted September 30, 2015 Share Posted September 30, 2015 Divide the price between soon to be 59 numbers. Each interested rafflee makes choice of numbers known and goes on big forum based list. We pay you via PP (no mention of raffle) or bank transfer. I win and collect the car as soon as possible. Is easy really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lankytim Posted September 30, 2015 Author Share Posted September 30, 2015 Sounds a plan... there's already a couple of raffles on so I'll give it a few days.. What if the winning number (bonus ball?) isn't one of the tickets that have been sold? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghosty Posted September 30, 2015 Share Posted September 30, 2015 Then it's a rollover - try again on Weds, try to sell more tickets in the meantime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lankytim Posted September 30, 2015 Author Share Posted September 30, 2015 Nothing! I may just keep it... I've put in lots of effort to get it "just so" and there's not many 2.5td's about, and this ones a good-un. KruJoe 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stanky Posted September 30, 2015 Share Posted September 30, 2015 Wow, you wouldn't want to drop anything in that engine bay, it'd never be seen again! Looks gr11 though and at least cms206 won't have as far to go this time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dollywobbler Posted October 1, 2015 Share Posted October 1, 2015 Wow, you wouldn't want to drop anything in that engine bay, it'd never be seen again!This is depressingly accurate in my experience. Stanky and Lacquer Peel 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Six-cylinder Posted October 1, 2015 Share Posted October 1, 2015 It seems a shame to sell it, how about doing a temporary swap with one of my fleet? You get a change of car, say for a month or 3 months. I get to drive an XM again, my friend sold his that I drove regularly and I miss it (02 plate C5 is just not the same).

Looks gr11 though and at least cms206 won't have as far to go this time Nah, it'll be fine. I dropped a brilliant long screwdriver bit down one of the chassis legs of mine whilst nipping up a jubiliee clip. Heard it exit the engine bay 4 miles later on a corner I always took at speed because the hydractive let me! Would have stopped to retreive it were there anywhere the pull over that wasnt on a blind bend, and if the bit that fell out came from a set worth more than £4.80 from ebay... purplebargeken 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
