COOPER's GOT A SYNCRO

Finally after much searching i have found a syncro!

I was told about an ad on gumtree, by a member. I looked it up and called owner.
In the end we set the price i would pay.

After some problems my dad booked a flight and went to inverness yesterday morning, met the previous owner and bought the van.
My dad then drove from inverness to hertfordshire. In one day. Left inverness at 1pm and got home last night at 12am.

So here it is:

1.9td VW syncro. its done 135,000 miles. Its a camper and RHD which is what i wanted.
There are a few things that need to be done to it.
Such as:

Brakes looked at.
Gear stick ball fixed as stick is loose.
Fit a new VC and fit prop back on.
Fit bash plates back.

Well done Coop, I really thought you were a wind-up by one of the regulars.
Hoping you've got yourself a good one.
As you've got nothing much to do.......Switch the lights, Syncros look much cooler with squares!!


:ok
