I saw this too, me and my mates were watching it. They don't know much about Landies, besides what I've prattled on about. However, they did say it looks tidy from the top, and they probably wouldn't know where to look to be sure it was solid underneath, so if you get a n00b to landies you're in the money (I do not condone this behaviour)!
Plus I never actually saw the underneath in detail, you never know it might have been in excellent condition .
I always think they buyers are actors anyway, but if he really sold it for £6000, I really am in the money!!
Oh yeah and amazing coincedence... the guy he bought it from is the same guy I bought mine from! (In Bolton)
Who knew V8s cost more than a 300tdi
