so how do you insure a 3.0 mav which never existed in that format as group 10

when an early 2.7 tdi was a 10, my late 2.7 tdi is a 12 and as recall a 3.0 is a 14.

plus would early chassis have abs etc as my 96 didnt on SR trim.

It would be interesting to have a look at it and its log book

If you go and check out it's MOT history, it had fails and advisories as long as your arm... Usual things, by all accounts, but welding, suspension links and corrosion were a major part of them.

Enter the Reg... NIL7332

and in the second box enter... 325947952282 from the MOT cert

Just as a mater if interest, how can the last one be an advisory, when it actually says it is dangerous???

It had only done 24,000 miles in 2006....12 years after it was made?

I think this Truck should have AVOID in big letters stamped all over it.

Also notice that its for sale a couple of months after the MOT has been passed, so there is now no come back on the tester. I have seen this scam before, they get a ropy MOT and store the car for a while then sell it so the MOT man is not held at fault.

I have just asked:

This car appears to be registered as a 1994 ford maverick, how did it come to be on this chassis? Thanks

Let's see what the answer is

[96terrano]

I wonder if he'll give different answers to us all?

[firebobby]

Well, he never got back to me, then I wasn't expecting him to.
I dare say some innocent fool will part with cash and get lumbered with it, I wonder if the Police or DVLA would be interested in it

[96terrano]

yup same here id'e only buy it for parts, eg, putting the interior and dash in my 93 terrano

[(RIP) PLANK]
