Advert Description
I will advertise my 04 plate LDV minibus with the rear seats removed so only has 3 seats in the front, my wife & I call her "Norma"... it is an ex-charity bus and only has 98,000 miles on it, ford chain driven diesel engine. scabby cosmetically... Over the years (5) I have changed the steering box for a recon, fitted a used wiper motor, had the clutch changed (cover had lost its springy ness poss by holding the clutch down so often) the dual mass flywheel was also f*cked so a solid flywheel fitted, a new mid bearing on the prop, a new front bearing & seal on the gearbox, new front discs approx 10,000 miles ago, fitted a towbar, extra LED lights (2) on the front... Obviously it is 20 years old and there may well be other issues I don't know about BUT one bodge I did recently to get me out of trouble was the left side "side lights" failed so to get home I spliced them into the right side feed, AND the fuel guage does no longer work, I had the tank changed 2 years ago, it worked then but only for 6 months, FINALLY the oil pressure light sometimes comes on, either fully or faintly, I have been told this is a switch fault as it has been like it for 4 years and many miles on the motorway from Watford to Somerset.
I have been told that I will make more money out of breaking it as the engine is so low mileage but it has served me so well it would be a shame to break it up, if you have the ability it would make a lovely campervan, day-van, anything, the roof is as high as a high thing, so it is an ex minibus, MOT until 10/2024, 98,000 miles diesel, manual gearbox, 2004 reg, usual cosmetically challenged, dirty, untidy, white, drive away (once I unload it) nothing special but a good project vehicle if you have the time & desire.....
Anyhow, I will sell it when someone comes to me in Somerset with £1500 or I would swap for a Triumph Bonneville (Hinckley) running & riding
OR a complete in need of work BUT not a rot box Triumph T100 500 twin BSA A50...
