As it says, looking for a TD5 90, needs to be straight and tidy.....anyone got something that fits the bill they need to move on ?

Would not give you house room for a TD5.

Yep, 2002 td5 CSW with winter pack (heated seats & screen). Met silver, newly painted chassis, 12 months mot. AT2's with <5000 miles, silver modulars, Ashcroft high-ratio transfer box, JE remap and intercooler (approx 180bhp). Does 350 miles to a tank (just over 30mpg, thank the LT230!) Parrot Bluetooth whatsit.

Going on eBay at the end of next week.

I thought you were a Toyota man??

...I'm guessing it's for a customer?

How much do you want for it?

[Lefty]

I think it's probably worth around 8 or 9 grand. I'm planning on running an auction starting at 7k with no reserve and see where it gets to.

P.s.

It doesn't have TC or ABS should you wish to fit lockers

I am a Toyota man but..........Defender will be better in the tight twisty tracks in the mountains on the Rallye de Cimes which I am planning to take part in September down in the Pyrenees.

Not a lover of the TD5 but you can get good BHP from them, better than 300TDI on power for sure.

I am having a 4x4 Buggy built at present but it's looking like it won't be ready so I need a banker hence the Defender, everything is booked so I don't want to miss this event as it's the 30th anniversary of when a friend of mine called Pat Willis won the event and another pal of mine called Alvin Smith was second, the French called it the second Trafalgar.

I also entered this event 20 years ago in a 200TDI 90 and finished 24th so am hoping to take part in something a little more competitive but as I have said it's looking a bit doubtful with the Buggy so a 90 as a banker I feel is the way to go.

If you see my other thread I am open to even a 2.4 Puma.

Would be nice to see what Lefty's TD5 looks like especially as it'S NOT got ABS & T/C........can you mail me ? Price, condition etc.

des Cimes in a 90? Good luck with that

Nearly as daft as desert racing in a golf buggy .. oh wait.... I'm sure you'll be fine.

Gets better........looks like it could be a 110. !!!!

Always was good at banging nails into Balsawood.

Deal done and vehicle purchased this afternoon.

[C Lee Farquar]

Cool, shall we have a sweepstake for how many shunts you need?

I pick 121.

Not competing this year but will be going to watch and take the piss out of people with unsuitable vehicles.

That few !!!!

Don't get toooooooooooooooo close behind it. Ha, ha.
