FS 2001 Y plate Mv6 3.2 Estate £350???
« on: 15 August 2015, 13:04:46 »

Well, it runs….. sort of….    (has suspect head gasket leak on pot 1,  although that hasn't stopped it running …  ,  and loud noise seeming to come from front of engine,  suspect bearing on something,   maybe water pump, maybe crank,  who knows )    it's got MOT….  till early 2016
Sat Nav (tempermental, but mostly working)
NCDC2013 pretty much fully functional
leather interior
Air con….  U/S ,  climate panel may need changing,  only blows cold ish, or partly warm air….    changed HBV ,  no effect….    tried reset….  no real effect…. 

basically it's a rolling project for someone…..

body is pretty solid,  good clean doors  (but boot lid has corroded scratch and usual beginnings under wiped )  one light crease on rear passenger side panel,  and small scrape on drivers rear bumper corner 

HID need polishing

3 years or so ago it had all new OE dampers (MV6 lowered chassis ones supplied by Andy )  and new rear springs,  wishbones (bushes now shot ) , drop links , roll bar bushes,  etc…. 
had new discs and pads earlier this year
and control arms
and water pump


still doesn't drive in a straight line….

about 175k miles and feels it…..   

currently got 2/3rds of a tank of unleaded on board….

(i'm not about to try and drain the tank ……)

2 new front tyres,    rears on legal limit….
comes with 2 full sets of MV6 alloys  (5 spoke slight dish ones)

assorted spare bits  (spare boot carpet,  couple of Dead colour screens ,  spare dead NCDC2013 , and assorted other bits. )

photos seem a bit pointless….  big shiny silver thing……

it's not changed since the following album was taken….

James is on his way over to see what this bearing noise actually is.
