Cheers Tunnie!  Rare, but not all that rare it would appear.   :-?

This one may well make a good car for someone but looks like it needs the rims redone.  The twin electrics, while usefull, also indicate the towing of a caravan so rear suspension may need checking out, as will clutch wear, dependant on how good the towing driver was......

Sellers feedback also indicates regular car sales so, who knows.........   :-?

ps - its not the same one I posted about that Timbuck is sniffing around, but a good find, none the less.   ;)

I bet you lot are all double bluffing on this one! I'm sure there's a few of you watching it  ;D

Wouldn't be too bothered about the towbar, after all seems like 75% of migs have em! We know that they make great tow cars and being an MV6, has uprated suspension anyway. In some ways, having the t/bar in place, as you say, allows you to identify the weak spots. (rather than removing the t/bar).

The alloys are notoriously weak as well but that mileage is still quite healthy :)
