It's time to part ways and pass on to a new custodian! Owned since 2017 as a hobby second car.
Health has taken a big toll on me this year and I just can't do what's needed to keep an older car running as primary transport so it has to go
It was bought as a toy i wouldn't mind taking off road, doing green lanes etc, so it's not a mint, pristine example. That said everything works, and the seats are in reasonable condition for its age. The worst thing inside is the saggy headlining.
Engine has been replaced as had a cracked block letting exhaust gases into the coolant. I've recently replaced both head gaskets as they were both blowing slightly to the outside. It's LPG and I've recently replaced the LPG loom and ECU for new and up to date ones, also serviced the reducers so no gas leaks.
I did think i was having block issues again but i think it was just me being paranoid as currently don't seem to be having excess pressure issues.
New Pipercross cam, with lifters, rockers and can chain etc replaced.
4 almost new General Grabber AT3 tyres on 16" good rims.
Gearbox oil and filters have been done and works nicely with no issues.
Front bushes recently done.
Middle exhaust box done last year, rear section is straight through.
Rear air bags done a couple of years ago, air suspension works fine.
ABS unit recently replaced and full brake bleed.
No book symbol on the hvac, fully working apart from the air-conditioning. New condenser ready to be fitted.
MOT will be done next week so you'll get full 12 months.
I can't think of anything else right now and will put up photos when the site lets me!
A have a nanocom, available separately.
