An unusual thing, according to the the seller parts are available through Nissan UK - I'm not sure if I would want the burden of a 2004 luxury limo even with that caveat. And there was I thinking the 1994–1998 Ford Scorpio was ugly. jumpingjehovahs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He moved to them after getting sick of being mugged by a succession of Renault Espace's going titsup, especially gearboxes (these were new). Cheap, slow and agricultural maybe but very reliable. He's been with the marque ever since. I do wonder where the the other two rear seats are mind. And you do get free car washes for a month... I’m always happy to hear some love for old tat like this. I think their hatred came from exactly what you mention. Cheap, slow and agricultural isn’t what you’re hoping for doing Bristol to Glasgow on a Friday night. I thought the same about the seats, and it is advertised as a 7-seater, but it looks mighty practical as a 5 seater Dabooka 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jumpingjehovahs Posted May 17, 2020 Share Posted May 17, 2020 Will come with a full MOT, which is interesting as it hasn’t had one since June last year. Still under £700 and finishes this evening so could be a bargain https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/264726898032 somewhatfoolish 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jumpingjehovahs Posted May 17, 2020 Share Posted May 17, 2020 This is identical to the car my parents had that I learnt to drive in (RIP AF54 XAJ). It was lovely, but always broken and this one seems no different. Gearbox issues, obvs, random limp home modes that no-one can diagnose and the boot sometimes refuses to close (ours did all three). But, I’d have another. £300 spares or repairs https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/133406180015 11001010, morrisoxide, Dabooka and 2 others 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was bought as a local runaround kind of wagon, kids, grand kids (and after retiring early) foster kids and their kids.... and a big daft dog too. There were some longer runs but not many, and I can see that a weekly run between Glasgow and Bristol wouldn't be anticipated with glee and hope. He moved onto a 7 seat Santa Fe (?) which was a huge leap forward although the rearmost seats were underfloor types and small. jumpingjehovahs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jumpingjehovahs Posted May 17, 2020 Share Posted May 17, 2020 Coolest car ever, when called the Fun Cargo, and a bargain at £600.

jumpingjehovahs Posted May 17, 2020 Share Posted May 17, 2020 Needs a new power steering rack, but has a brilliant roof rack to balance that out. Also had a rev counter and a clock in the gauge binnacle, not sure I’ve ever seen that before. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/293579891803 Amishtat, Shite Ron, MorrisItalSLX and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jumpingjehovahs Posted May 17, 2020 Share Posted May 17, 2020 Useful thing this and am I right that the TDI is veg friendly? Comes with one odd wing mirror with a side repeater in, amazing seat fabric and a blue dashboard. I wonder if this was one of the last cars to have a colour matched in non-dreary black dashboard? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/224007985870 TooManyPeopleMovers 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jumpingjehovahs Posted May 17, 2020 Share Posted May 17, 2020 Love this. Has had the 1.3 engine swapped for the 1.6 from a Niva and that interior is великолепный. I think from the description, he’s trying to say the front brakes are stuck on? Not sure. Anyway, £1900 (about half it’s new list price in 1986!). https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/254598343889 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
