Very nice find.... I'm not surprised you got it so cheap though, that has to be the worst eBay description I've ever seen!

That guy would struggle to sell water in Gloucestershire just now

Still, no complaints. Bargain! Even more so if it's a manual, one of the many important things the seller neglected to mention.

Right, well yesterday (saturday) was free first full day to get to grip with my new MV6 and to sort out one or two job's which needed to be done on the car the first one was to get the headlight washers working so the first thing to do was take of the front bumper, and here are some photo's to show what I found;

No under bumper, and the washer bottle is held on by zip ties;




The hoses which connect the washer bottle to the headlight washer jets where blocked with a rawplug and a large screw



And the jet washers for the headlights where there but held in place by screws;
Also the mesh need to be replaced:

£700 is cracking price for a standard MV6, so one with the kit already on is a bargin!

There's no complain it's and easy fix, and I know why they've removed the under bumper. When i did my silver elite with the same irmscher front bumper it came with instructions and told you you had to remove (cut away) part of the under bumper so that the irmscher front bumper will sit properly, if the guy who had the car before me bought the kit second hand ie; ebay he wouldn't have the instruction book so when he went to fit the bumper to the car it woundn't fit so he probadly just removed the under bumper for ease, but I don't know why he didn't reconnect the headlight washers :-/

Gave the car it's first mod today, I managed to get a self dimming interior mirror from an elite for a fiver, what a bargin I couldn't believe it when he said a fiver

No complains from me
