I know this car very well. It was mine for nearly 4 years, until I traded it in for an E-Class Mercedes. If anyone has any questions please contact me :y :y

Everything works on this car :y :y

Work that needs doing:
One of the front wheel bearings is just starting to grumble (my local garage still can't identify which one).
A couple of rust spots on the rear wheel arches. nothing to serious.
The cam belts will be due before the end of the year.

Apart from that, it runs very well. :) :) :)

I was ridiculed for saying that on here, always preferred cloth, I have leather in the Jeep, nice but cold in the winter and sticky in the warm - in the winter Miss Vamps would often say my car was much colder than Mum's........... ::) ::)


Nice car by the way Phil, you do get a lot for little money............... :y :y

Forgive me but how can they be cold in the winter with heated seats  ??? ::)

Saying that I do agree Velour are much better for sitting on but leather looks smarter and eaisier to clean. Best set of seats in a car I ever sat in where on a M reg 2.5 CDX Omega saloon velour sooo comfy  ;)

You are forgiven.......... :y :y  No heated seats in the back of the Jeep, and they do take a little while to warm up, they make it generally colder than the cloth we have in the Mig.... :D :D

Aye true, Cloth/Velour is pretty much neither hot or cold to the touch, But leather is either too hot or cold and any car that has leather should have heated seats to help in winter (granted they take some time to get toasty) but there's a satisfying feeling from the heat when they do  :-X ::) .. As for Summer being too hot and sticky for leather seats well we ain't going to have that problem very often  ;D ...
