That's also a Sportrak rather than a Fourtrak. I had a couple of petrol Fourtraks years ago, albeit with the earlier 2-litre engine. They were rubbish.

Hope it's not been here more than six months and it actually has some reg docs. Lovely looking thing though eh. Van reg plate shows it is from the Sarthe department (72). Never been there so have no idea of the climate in this region of France. Potentially rusty or little to no rust ? If only i was nearer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm guessing the Ford tax isn't applicable here? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/133968256539?hash=item1f31215e1b:g:Pn0AAOSwSpRhvkxc You know how when you sell a car you drive it to a nice location to take pipctures for the advert? The grounds of a local NT property or a quiet country road or whatever? I was wondering who would drive to Thamesmead in an effort to boost their sales pitch, and have come to the conclusion this is being sold be the 'travelling community' who live on the other side of the road, and I would strongly advise anyone thinking about it to leave well alone.

From an objective view also, it suggests that the seller might be trying too hard which suggests the car isn't up to scratch. What does the seat look like that she is sitting on? What sort of seller are we dealing with who is willing to do that sort of thing in the first place? Like you, I am also unsettled by this, just too many questions and dodgy themes She's just proving how good the heated seat is - it is winter you know MisterH and Shite Ron 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amen. When i’m President my first decree shall be that anyone (including marketing people at car companies) referring to a two-door saloon as a coupe will be placed on a register and forced to wear a metre tall, luminous yellow dunce cone on their stupid fucking head whenever they are in public. They will be barred from taking paid employment and / or receiving any form of state or charitable aid. Similar sanctions will be placed upon anyone referring to an estate car as a shooting brake or a longroof. In the latter case, they will also be required to shave their hair off and have the word CUNT tattooed on their stupid fucking head in case their dunce hat falls off.
