80 series - 1995 4.2 TD a "doer-upper" but at £2.5k might be worth a look?

Might be a steal for someone handy with the spanners.......(which rules me out!)

Might also need someone handy with a brush or spray can.

I like his optimism "although there is some blistering to the paintwork" just look at that bonnet.

24v 80. Wrong grill front panel etc etc. hmmm think ill leave it where it is

 

[chadr]

It has the later (i.e. very late model) roof bars but is an auto and doesn't have any 24v badges........?

 

[karl webster]

Could be a 12 v with a different front bumper I suppose. Amazon 1997 roof bars .....

 

[karl webster]

I don't personally think its straight or has prob had some major changing around for some reason .....

Looking at the background to pics the yard is full of classic cars and theres a 4x4 being worked on in the shed . Says to me this guy collects farm finds for nothing then hobbles them together from whatevers cheap at the breakers and moves them on for a small profit . Neglected and used for spares doesn't mean its not straight .

The listing has ended now already!

As a matter of interest, you might want to look at the yard here - https://maps.google.co.uk/maps?ie=U...622&ei=w1GKUuj6IsaqhAfcnIGoBA&ved=0CHoQ_BIwCw

Off station road, just south of the JENDA recycling centre next to Rushden & Diamonds FC (you can just see the JENDA logo on the building in the background of one of the pics)

Don't think I'd expect a warranty...

Totally understand your views Shane but I always go into an unknown purchase with my barriers up. Things like I mentioned can just have been added but it makes it non standard so my head thinks the worse until proven different.
