£8k with reserve not met :shock: what is the respray covering up?

My opinion, better vans out there for less money.

They didn't bother to fill the crease in the sill, then - visible in treasure chest pic...it's been toshed over. Wheel arch doesn't fit right either...Orange streaks by springtime 2011 and I don't mean on the buyer's face :cry:
8 grand for a 1.9 doka??? ok it's rhd and 1st year of production, but those aren't syncro steel wheels for a kick off.

Bloomin heck.. I'll fluff mine up and get it on there for that money....

Why not syncro steels Ian? as only the 205r14 option had wider steels, the std 185's came on the std steels... :wink:

I thought the 185's were std. on the 1.9l syncro. Certainly early ones. Unless my memory fails me again.

Agreed the listing looks iffy though.

That'd be my mistake then :oops: my 1.9 is on 185's (lovely light steering!) I'd just assumed that they should be wider. Yes, I've been reading books again :roll: No good will come of it :rofl
