Remember 56 plate carries £555 road tax penalty, personally i'd rather spend that £8 on a similar conditon pre March 06 model because as time goes on * and vehicle value decreases that ropad tax penalty will have a serious effect on value.
* we had the same dilemma when we bought the 08 plate Forester XT, but managed to get it roughly £1500 under value which sort of pre paid the difference in VED costs compared with pre 06 for several years...oh and we save massively because its dual fuel, we get a whole £10 off, so cheap as chips @ £545 or whatever it will be next year.
I should qualify this post with we haven't a clue what our govt of lunatics will do re future motoring costs for us plebs, to claw some of the moeny pack they've pissed away over this flu farce or the next stage in the reset the climate scam, we could all be paying ridiculous figures the chancellor plucks from his back side to keep our jalopies on the road.
As the posts above, much depends on the condition underneath.
Re the injectors, that it needs injectors before sale raises my hackles, why? and why after spending £1300 and now another £1500+ fitting injectors and a new cambelt. Is the engine banging like a drum or rattling like a horde of skeletons in a biscuits tin, has someone peered up the drain plug and seen the oil pick up stuffed with carbon sludge?
New genuine injectors or recon? who's fitting them? warrantied work?
Yes you and i or any of us might get diagnostics done and decide its time for new injectors on vehicles we intend to keep, but it seems a bit suspicious to me doing so to sell a vehicle, might be quite innocent of course.
Count me wary until i'd seen the vehicle and had a chat with the seller (preferably previous owner) face to face.
Tyres shouldn't really be replaced in pairs on full time 4x4's, fine on part time 4x4's because 4WD is usually only selected in slippery conditions, ideally with AWD vehicle you should keep tread depths as close as possible on all 4 and same tyre type and wear them all down evenly by rotating.
