If it's a diesel - make sure the glow plugs are changed. Also it could be a good idea to ask for a new battery.

check everything, yes everything works. no slip in clutch, no strange noises when driving coming from rear. steering not stiff or clunky.

I think you should buy a 2008 FL2 HSC, it will be exactly what you want |

you just look silly because you own an fl2 not a RRS HSC? you mean HSE? check clutch as mentioned side sides can split (they are pleather vinyl not leather) whiney noise steering means new steering rack needed And I will get shot down for this (again ) avoid cars with towbars, you wont know what kind of driver has been flogging the life out of it towing/attempting to reverse a huge plastic 'holiday' shed At work At home "I can't always believe facts I read on the web" - Charles Dickens winner by default of the tractor vs caravan race |

Whatever you buy just make sure it has a long warranty that includes the clutch. |

"Free911" - now THERE's a thought. Four wheel drive with a three-litre flat six rear mounted...... WOW!!!

Pajeros and Patrols can probably hack a hard life towing, don't think the FL2 can without popping a few clutches. |

Clutches? If God meant you to have three pedals He/She'd have given you three feet! Ours - 2008 Stornoway Grey HSE Auto
