Transit Shite Shifter £1275 Fife

That's on the (joke) MOT exemption, which doesn't legitimately cover 3500 (or under) KG vehicles. I have feeling my insurance no longer cover recovery trucks though, so would have to have a new policy, then ensure that covers all aspects.

 

I'm not sure what it's down as on the V5, It just comes up as Transit 190 lwb when I type the reg into insurance sites. The insurance is with Aviva for £300 a year.

Wheel bearing is on its way so here's hoping I can get it fitted this afternoon.

I Presented my case to my friend who I wanted to go 1/2 with this morning. We share storage so sharing a transporter seemed logical to me, but it met with negative vibes. So I guess I am out.

Fuck. Wish I'd seen this two days ago, I'd have been on a train to Jockaneseland to collect on Wednesday.

Ha ha! I've done that before. They failed the fucking attitude test so the price has gone up. I like to think of it as a stealth tax on stupid people.

What happened 2 days ago that stopped you?

New wheel bearing now fitted so this is pretty much good to go.

Don't forget to update that screenshot when it's £1700 by the weekend and he calls you nasty names.

If only it had Carlton trims, then I would be on this like a tramp on chips

That can be arranged, just need to figure out how to get 14 inch trims on a 15 inch wheel

So what did you get in return? Boat? Beach Buggy?

 

I turned down a mk5 gt tdi Golf, various offers of £500, a mk6 Transit, A generator, caravan and some dogs. Guy turned up with £1100 and I just thought fuck it, I'm making a loss but it'll be away.

Posted

What were the wheel trims like on the dog?

Back on Gumtree for £1500 now I think, someone called Adam in Edinburgh.

Start the ball rolling with an offer of a dog in a caravan.

Christ, I know people try to trade all sorts of shonky crap to turn a profit (see theshadow) but you've got to be certifiable to be buying these with that aim surely!

They're pretty good money spinners to be fair. I reckon you could buy one for £1500 with a long MOT, work it for a month and do very well out of it, before selling it for what you paid.

Yes, that's the guy that bought it from me. He'll struggle I reckon. There are better ones out there for similar money.
