vehicle description:

 Bought this as an E-bay accident at the end of 2013 and have enjoyed it ever since.  It passed the first MOT (April 2014) with just a couple of bulbs needed.  This year it needed a bit of welding.  I have just had it serviced and had the front discs replaced.  The rears ones are getting a bit thin but well within safe and legal limits. Proving not quite so easy to source through conventional routes and haven"t had time to check out the more specialist avenues.
Problems I am aware of :
Cam chain rattled when I bought and still does as I have not had time, or been bothered, to have it looked at.
Passenger"s window does not open and driver"s side is a bit lazy.
Struts on tailgate are getting weak and hold it about three quarters open - just about right height to hit your head.
I have to rear seats in my garage but they are in poor condition.
Inside is quite shabby and needs a good overall.
Runs well most of the time but occasionally runs a bit rough and lumpy for no reason... seems to pass after a couple of days and runs ok again for a few months.
Body is solid but paintwork is poor.  It looks like some panels have been sprayed with a Halfords can and  poorly at that. 
Bits of the paint are starting to bubble but metal underneath is still solid.
  It is getting to a  point where it needs saving, probably not a lot needs doing, nearly all cosmetics, for someone with the knowledge, time, skill, inclination and enthusiasm, all of which I lack. I also have too many other things on the go, such as a camper van that needs a bit of work and a recently acquired Ural sidecar outfit.
It has done just under 175000 miles but this is likely to change as I use it quite regularly
Any viewing is welcome and recommended.  Payment by cash or bank transfer only.  I will not and cannot accept PayPal - we are currently in dispute so any money you pay to them, I won"t get and I won"t release the car until I have received payment, so you will loose your money.
Collection only.  Any queries or question you may have, just drop me a line, or call 07870 552793
