part ex?

[WorAl]

think the 14 careful owners and regular servicing may be a clue??? wonder if they were at same time?

[Republik]

That is genius! Anyone brave enough to email asking for pics?

ETA: Just noticed which section its under - Other big stuff

Can't see him shifting it without a decent picture or 2 including pictures of new parts fitted

Anyway - the market has been swamped lately with cheap Eastern European imports

[Fer]

Test drive?

I would but for the fear of him contacting PH and having me banned

I'm guessing there is a good chance there could well have been a break-in via the rear doors.

[robinhood21]

With fourteen previous owners will probably require extensive head-work and a re-bore.

Just sent this to him:

"Hi, i might be interested, could you tell me a little more about her, like colour? has she had a respray? service history? any accident damage etc?

Depending on condition and spec, i might be looking to part ex my younger model with less milage and previous owners.

Also is there any chance i can get a few pictures of the work carried out on her, to check workmanship etc?

Cheers
Greg"

I promise to post up any replies and or pictures!

Like it!

...so you are thinking the stem seals might be shot too?

[Jasandjules]

Might have blown a gasket.

This takes me back! Years ago on the vauxhall website, Migweb, someone posted a very similar advert. Cue lots of comments about re-bores to accept oversized pistons, are the airbags a decent size and in good working order etc etc.

[Cooky]

a recon box may be in order...wouldn't want any excess play in the lay-shaft

[Road Hog]

does she pull to the left or right under heavy braking..

is she a comfy ride
built for speed ?

It's often found in conjunction with flange wear and extensive head work.

With 14 previous owners I think she might have been bored enough so really no worries about splitting the chamber.
