Hi all,

I've found what is a perfect Series 3 for me (judging by the images) on ebay. It is factory LHD, which is a must for me and the seller has been very helpful. Is there anyone near Blackburn willing to go and view it for me to see if it really is as described? I'm out of the UK for another two weeks and worried it my go beforehand. My main points of concern are that the VIN is corroded/missing on the chassis/bulkhead. I would want to export it and the authorities over here are very picky.

This is the vehicle in question

What's in it for you? I can offer you some money, or if you like, I can send you a brand new 3pc lead crystal whisky set free of charge as a thank you (the company I work for is a glass/crystal wholesaler).

If anyone is willing to help out please PM me.

Thanks

Mike

not keen on that camo finish but that is one sweet looking truck, if it was rhd I would be seriously considering thinking about becoming interested in possibly buying it. :D

good luck, hope you can snag it
 
Very clean looking. Id be happy to have a look but wtf do I know. I could give the thumbs up and you hunt me down for the rest of my natural. :eek:

If it was RHD it would be five grand Joe :p
 
I've given that a thought, though I'd probably need some special tools? I tried stamping a Russian 4x4 I once had and my god the steel was really strong. Ended up being really wonky :)
 
If that's what the stamps look like I reckon I could stamp it myself in case the VIN isn't there. What size are the S3 letters, 8mm?

The S3 is growing on me, though I'm not particularly keen on the camouflage paint job. Will probably repaint it...read loads of posts for DIY paint jobs. What would be the era correct green colour? I've had a look on paintman.co.uk and didn't realise there were so many shades of green

Cheers
