Car clear out sale - Scoob, Rover, 745...the list goes om

[scooters]

OK with the arrival of Des's 'Autoshite Bus' Ford Explainer and the Saab 900 Giffer Spec in the next few weeks the fleet is getting cut back.

 

First up is a 2000 Subaru Legacy Estate. Very high spec: leather interior, climate control, low ratio, manual transmission, premium sound system, good tyres, no oil leaks, load tonneau, twin sunroof, cruise control, leccy everything - all works, heated seats, OMG IMPREZA ALLOYZ, front spoiler, fogs etc etc

It has 160k on the clock but has only done 100k on this engine - it says 2.5 Quad Cam on the back but the refitted engine is a twin cam 2.0l which is good because a, it is still quick when you boot it and b, it drinks a LOT less gas than the 2.5 and is a lot easier to maintain. Engine is in good nick, had a timing belt about 20k ago (we've done about 4k in this car since November.

 

MOT till November (might be late October), Taxed till the end of December.

 

History: bought from new by a farmer and looks like it - car has dozens of scrapes, - underside has rust here and there but quite solid - farmer was a dairy farmer - cow pee corrosive from the yaaaaarrd. Then bought by a born again Christian who runs a pub outside Stirling - good because its a terrible sin to trash your car or to poorly maintain it so it is a danger to others - in his ownership the previous engine blew up so he had a smaller one fitted.

 

Running gear: in decent condition - know unpleasant knocks, I fitted 2 brand new front springs in January, brakes might need doing for MOT, needs a new offside CV joint/boot - easiest to replace whole driveshaft - about £20-50 on ebay. Health wise this job is a bit beyond me at the moment - I lack the strength to tackle suspension and steering bolts.

 

£450 to a shitter - soild, reliable 4x4 workhorse

 

we need a bigger car - dog is too large!

 

Next is the rover Vittesse - you know about this and it is currently on t'bay:

Lastly, the Volvo 745 GL Auto estate, £150+tax (£100)..

don't really want to sell it but have to show willing since the Saab was rumbled by 'You Know Who'

well known on here - mechanically bulletproof, comfortable, fast, 8v B23F non interference engine, mechanical fuel injection - probably about the most reliable set up on any vehicle in the last 40 odd years.

Hey CMS, how about you do a deal with Scooters for your Cav SRi and I'll try and work a deal out to get it off him?!!!
