N reg Terrano on guntree - I went to see it
 

There's an N reg red Terrano , square lights on gumtree
I went to see it Saturday
Apart form 3 or 4 dings and 2 cracked lights it was in excellent condition
only surface rust underneath
on 50k miles and father daughter owned from new


1st thing I checked was oil and all was fine
checked water and expansion tank was empty
checked in rad and it was very dry

the owner put some water in and we went for a spin

Drove nice , no overheating
But when we got back I checked the tank and it was like skimmed milk , and shiny on top

Looks like there's a crack in it or the head gasket is gone

shame
was in good condition

Is this the Red one in Oxford with the bullbar?

If the price is right another head is not going to break the bank especially for a rot free motor, and it might only be the gasket, Rick

Yes

The guy was going to check it over with a garage , and see from there

currently still up for about 900

I spotted that too, does look very clean :)

Only thing that worries me is lacquer peel as those reds are known for it at that age

went to see this one on ebay 263595645578 in bristol yesterday a ford maverick looked really tidy but on closer examination was not so good so i walked away clutch was right on the top of pedal rust around the rear arches behind mouldings sills were ripe on front rear side seat belt mounts was ok though areial broke and for some reason the steering box where the pipes go in was really clean and shiny liked they had been cleaned off front bumper supports had none of it left that you could see in the arch any you could see fell off in lumps and when i handed him some lumps of rust all he could say was the stereo was new and it has a new mot till april 2019 it drove ok clean interior but not worth what he was asking for it i think if you had it mot again it would i think it would fail and you would have a list as long as your arm so avoid this one the bit i did enjoy is that he thought he was talking to mr average not someone who was in the trade for 25+ years
