So, some advice on one I’ve just viewed. Mechanically, it’s is extremely good. The rear chassis has some what appears to be very old under seal on, which has either cracked, or the chassis has. The areas where the under seal has flaked off (not many), or the bits a peeled off looks solid. But, would you be concerned about the attached photos. It looks to me like thick undersell that’s cracked, but I’m not expert.

It’s a gs, so not top of range and it’s fairly priced. He had no issues at all with me underneath, and I peeled a few bits off that I could and underneath what I could get off was fine, surface rust if anything, but no flaky bits at all. It’s never had an advisory for chassis on MoT, and has recently passed with no chassis advisory.

If the price is right along with the rest of the truck & the fact it's had no advisories you should be ok. (you can get a rear quarter done for £500-600 cheaper if you can DIY so it's not the end of the world if it wants doing in a year or two). Just check for stained headlining indicating water leaks (if it hasn't got sunroofs that's a massive bonus) & that ALL the electrics work esp. locking/unlocking, if it's a TD5, exhaust manifold studs are intact, best of luck.

So I walked away. He was happy with me underneath, but he wasn’t too happy with me starting to poke around in detail. A few odd comments were made which started to ring some alarm bells, so I thought best to start the hunt again!

Thanks for all the help and advice.
