12borejimbo Posted July 23, 2010 Report Share Posted July 23, 2010 The local garage near me has got a 2.0l petrol fourtrak for sale, I had a look at it and it looks fairly tidy, no major rust patches and the bloke said he has welded the arches up, they have got landrover style arches on now, it started ok after not apparently been started for about a month, he only wants 400 for it, it had 74893 miles on the clock but do you think it could be 174893? should I go for it? it also has 11 months mot and good on/off road tyres.

al4x Posted July 23, 2010 Report Share Posted July 23, 2010 wouldn't touch it with a barge pole, extremely expensive to run and no where near as good as the diesel equivalent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devon Fox Posted July 23, 2010 Report Share Posted July 23, 2010 I always go with my first gut feeling - you are not sure so walk away! Thing to remember is that there are plenty around so dont dive in! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
