2.0 or v6? I'm guessing a 2.8 v6 on a D plate!

Tear the whole back end out (worth about £150 or so). Sell any other bits you can (front brakes, hubs, uprights engine, box etc) and weigh the shell in (cutting off the VIN plate to retain) - good prices on scrap these days.

Came for a run down to eastbourne this evening, fish and chips by the sea!!


Im interested in the whole car for two reasons, for my youngest daughter to learn to drive in (off road in my field) she is 14. Second as spares for the viento.
How much do you want for it?

Check the diff size as well, because despite what everyone believes, those 4x4's sometimes came with 7 1/2" rear ends.

I know, I've had two, and still got one in a car.

Cheers,
Syd.
