the van hunt- RESULT

Really? Ever wonder why the person selling it didn't bother? After all, if he had it'd be worth three times that price.

Not mechanically minded and the garage wanted too much ?

This is Rob tho, he'll just drop an axle from a different car :)

A nova, probably.

Narrowed Ford 9 inch or Jag IRS no doubt.

Maybe he'd have to pay a garage that difference, so can't be bothered with it.

In article , snipped-for-privacy@italiancar.co.uk spouted forth into uk.rec.cars.modifications...

If it is, the mileage may be 10 times that listed.

They used to disconnect the Speedo as soon as bought on vans and their personal transport mercs, but now they need to have them on for a while each year, as the MOT centres record it.

I reckon you don't actually exist. At first I thought it was just the V8 punto and the Nova XE that didn't exist, but now I'm convinced that you're just a random collision of lost IP packets that burst onto newsgroups every so often.

P.S. It's french so it's crap ( been there, not going back ) , and if the axle is knackered then so is the rest.

At the end of the day it's all bollocks anyway. Only a complete fool would buy something with low mileage (let's say 30k) and pay top dollar for it, with an engine that felt like it had done 150k, and tatty bodywork.

There's plenty of people out there who wouldn't know a 30k mile car from a 150k mile car.....

funny you should say that :)

looks pretty similar from underneath :) :) :)

Agreed. If you're at all concerned with what the mileometer reads, then clearly you're gonna be making sure the car ties in with it.
