Sprackles Posted June 8, 2014 Report Share Posted June 8, 2014 Got the chance to buy one of these from a mate. 09 plate, 100k Double cab for Life model. Its got the locking roller shutter on the pick up and the chrome bars around it. Overall very good nick but the tailgate has had a dink...nothing serious but its there. Wants £6500...lowest he will go with a years ticket and new tyres all around. Had a lengthy test drive yesterday and was impressed. No faster than my current Terrano II but a tad better MPG so i'm told. Hell of a beast to back into anywhere though as it does not have the rear camera. I reckon it should last me a good few years......what's your opinions on this ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbiep Posted June 8, 2014 Report Share Posted June 8, 2014 Biggest thing on these is cambelt failures - I believe the interval is 50k, and when changed all the rollers, pulleys,etc. MUST be changed too. Not a cheap job, so often skimped on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
