What he is likely to get are loads of lowball offers. Just keep the fucking car instead of teasing people with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mileometer not working is very likely to be a broken cog, which can be bought new and isn't a difficult job to replace, switching the entire unit is unnecessary.

Coprolalia Posted October 18 Share Posted October 18 21 hours ago, Cavcraft said: 1989 FORD TRANSIT CLASSIC OLD TRANSIT | eBay The two three most important questions that remain unanswered on the advert: 1) Why is there a ducking being tickled by a snake in the bottom of the photograph 2) Does it have the correct engine? 3) Has the radiator been shot like a cartoon cowboy who's just had a big drink? Luckily, our old M8s at the DVLA have confirmed it's a 2.5 diesel I see your sensible motor, and raise you a petrol LWB ex-ambulance for half the price. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/115043386553?hash=item1ac91ec4b9:g:~acAAOSwJXRhZdsE Quote Would be an ideal project for camper van Cavcraft and Split_Pin 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have already torn this one apart (by we I mean myself and Jeff the 480 wizard) MOT history is patchy, mileometer has been broken for a long time, so mileage could mean anything, and the seller hasn't been honest (the lights don't go like that if it has been garaged its whole life) Quote Jiff's summary: No interior shots."One minor fault only - mileometer needs replacing" - and has need it doing since 2015..."Always been garaged" - Even photo'd outside a garage! It won't, of course, physically FIT in that garage, and the rear lights tell a different tale..."MOT til Dec 2021 - has always flown through" Except in 2006, 2007, 2011, 2012, 2014, 2015, 2018 2019 and 2021.....

Another possible issue I noticed is that the advert states that it has leather seats, which an S shouldn't have. Of course they could have been replaced and this isn't necessarily a bad thing, but it would have been nice if the seller was clear about it. MOT history raises some questions, the observed oil leak may be trouble. Rear lights shouldn't be discolored if it was kept inside. Mine spent its life under a carport when it was with the longterm first owner and it clearly showed; the left light and paint was faded while the right was pristine.

Didn't realise you were a follower of the wedge, though your profile pic should have told me otherwise... Rear light fogging isn't a huge issue as it can be solved, it is just the cracking that is the real problem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't seem as common as the hatchback, but the saloon definitely existed. Fun fact: the saloon was also available via the Green Shield Stamps scheme. Unfortunately you needed to collect about 2500 completed stamp books in order to claim the car, so I'm not sure any punters managed it. wuvvum, UltraWomble and AndaBoss 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
