"Selling for less than purchase cost as i need to move it to get my own bike out".

That must be a first, selling something for less that you bought it for.

I have this absolutely crazy idea, right.

Why doesn't the seller... I can't, this is too crazy.

Why doesn't the seller, like... why doesn't the seller swap the bikes around so the other bike is easier to get out and this one is at the back of the shed?

 

I know. It's completely insane.

The engine light is on because of the LPG system, doesn't affect the car at all. It's been through three MOT's like that.

Occasionally the air susp light comes on, the suspension works perfectly tho', sits at the right height - it'll just be a sensitive sensor, the car needs to be used more than i do too...

The MOT is now due, it think it needs some of the usual rubber lower suspension bushes replaced at the back and the rear reg plate lights replaced - i have a s/h set of these lights ready for fitting. . all tyres are good.

On a scale of 1-10 how explodey is the Northstar?

8/10 I would say. Only 2 of 4 I own have serious issues, one I have no clue since I never heard it running.

Lot of work involved, but surely £450 is a bit of a bargain?

You can get one that doesn't require thousands in paint work for less than a grand more, all the time!

Legend has it they can run on no coolant, but that is probably bolex.

A doomed, over-complex, green-blooded Citroen project. But ignore the C6 in the background and get a load of this CX.

Then search the autoshite archives for @Junkman’s terrifying tales of international newspaper running in them.

How bloody ace does this look?

I think you'll struggle to find a better van/camper/WAV/motorbike carrier around that money.

I'm always confused when it's £1000 start or best offer. Does that mean they want £5000 for it? 

I agree though it's decent. Despite the NA diesel it's a proper conversion with a thick steel ramp. 

If it was actually £1000 I'd buy it then take my mum out in it for a few day trips. She lives near Tavistock ( @HMC land) and the wheelchair taxi service is £££ and unreliable. I've often thought there's a good living to be made providing a decent wheelchair taxi service.

It's been used as a van and has some lights on the dashboard. Could be a cheapo though.

That's a great ULEZ beater van vehicle but I suspect that's what it's already been used as. I remember someone saying the 2.0 pez was slow AF but that wouldn't matter in London as you rarely get above walking pace anyway.

Most engines would.
