Looks nice, 58k on the clock is not a lot of miles, i think it is due a major service? - belts and fluids at 60K (from memory) so allow 400.00-500.00 this could be a bargaining point.

speak to track directly about the lifetime subscription and if it is transferable.

Cambelt should have been done at 50k (or 5 years) service (check to see if it was missed).

60k service is normal plus gearbox/diff oil change, brake fluid, plugs, coolant etc.

I like it how he says, we had to buy a second 4x4 because we live in a rural area and because of the snow..

So now he's selling it to buy a camper van... did they move from the rural area? is he expecting not to snow anymore?

something not right, i reckon he took it to a dealer who said something expensive is about to break and he came up with the camper van story


People always come up with the weirdest excuses when selling a car, I usually get the story in my head and when looking at the vehicle throw a few questions not directly about the story but that might make the person forget the story they wrote and give an answer that compromises the story

Suspicious mind

Sometimes people have other changes - new interests, maybe a mate has got a camper and he wants to join the fun. Maybe his job has changed and he can work from home in the snow rather than going into the office.

Not everyones a dodgy git

It looks nice enough, as the boys said its a good idea to say about the service and belt and see what you can get off the price...
