I recently sold something, and I mentioned the nearest town for the location, and the buyer decided to cancel the buy, as it was further to travel then expected....all 3 miles of it! We sold H's old Ibiza about 5 times over on eBay and got p*ssed about by idiots every time, put it up on Autotrader in the end and it went immediately with zero hassle. I rarely bother selling stuff on eBay now as it's not worth the hassle or postage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why not? It's built like a tank, it's got tonnes of room, the clearance looks good and it's got smooth torque up the wazoo - other than the fuel consumption I imagine it would be an incredibly smooth way to go overlanding.

geoffbeaumont Posted April 23, 2021 Share Posted April 23, 2021 I can't imagine it has much axle travel, so it's not going to be tackling anything that would actually require those tires. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not everything requires huge wheel travel - most of the time just managing to clear taller rocks in the path and having some extra traction is plenty.

paime Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 The rear door opening the wrong way round is what's most confusing but I suppose that makes sense of it's being used on the other side of the road. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
