Re: looks tidy...

Hi hus, i need to catch up properly by pm since ive not been around for a while, but look at at the rear end caps, no arches from the factory or corners cut on its resto, but best still look at the pic with the load area seats..........................what did they come out of? Not a g.

there was also a lwb blue metallic that you guys spotted which i actually went to view, the only thing stated was seat damage. when i saw it in the flesh the seats were swapped for ones out of a car with black vinyl and grey cloth faces but the teim panels in the load area was grey. he stated that it had been owned by a farmer and they had a dog in it that chewed everything, there was no carpet on the sides of the transmission tunnel, grab handles had teeth marks and the wood veneered panel around the gearshift was missing most of its wood and totally trashed. the overall paint was rather dull at best, with a chemical spill on the top of the grill and a little on the top of the passenger wing that had removed some paint, there was a clump on the drivers rear quarter near the fuel filler that left a bit of a crease over most of this panel and this had also spanked and broken the rear bumper on that side somewhat.

the auction finished at 8600 reserve not met and he has put it up again. it is only viable at a lower price!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: looks tidy...

I agree on that swb, that is a good looking g at a much more sensible price. It seems that lwb gs are the ones commanding the highest prices since there arent as many around. Will Pm you in the next hour or so.

Re: looks tidy...

Very tidy looking. 49K miles, assuming genuine, sounds very attractive.
