Nigelw Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 I am dubious of the tray backs identity on an SVA as usual but when you mention quality just check out the trailer light board for rear lights £3500, joke if ever I saw one..........

Big.Mike Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 It looks like the bumper is welded to the chassis... Is this a good idea? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nigelw Posted November 29, 2012 Share Posted November 29, 2012 It looks like the bumper is welded to the chassis... Is this a good idea? Erm no, just means they were too tight to buy some bolts and too lazy to drill some holes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan Posted November 29, 2012 Share Posted November 29, 2012 I love the original Series 3 coil sprung chassis, and the brush work on the paint job is second to none. Oh, and the DVLA thinks it's green and has a petrol engine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DD Yes I think he is serious but sadly there are two other people who think he is too and have made offers. I don't know what is worse the asking price or the offers. Mind you someone could be offering the real value of about £200,00 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roguevogue Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 Just wondering, how much is a pair of Maxidrive equipped axles worth? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nigelw Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 Depends. Age, Condition, type? Company closed so they could be rare collectables or horrid things that you will never get spares for. Are they the portal type or just live axles with Maxi internals? Didn't see them in the listing though? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I don't understand...... I thought all PCs and laptops came with a spell checker? Depends on how the turbo "let go" as to whether or not the head has to come off to remove the potential metal fragments loitering in the bores and in the head/ inlet manifold, pics of it hanging off a couple of head bolts might put me off buying it too LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
