You're best to get the AA to do an inspection if you don't feel you can make the decision yourself. Either way it is money well spent. |

I'd love too but I don't have 300 to just have disposable if completely honest.

NPINKS made a very valid point - check the fuse box for internal mud, if its just dust, then like most people reckon, its just a dirty farm car, and at that price, if this was my budget I would buy it double quick, add 18" wheel, tint rear windows, spend a day taking out all the seats and carpet for a full clean.

I never bother with inspections, if it starts and drives ok - trust your gut then the ready mechanical s are ok. Recent MOT ensures it is safe, and nothing dangerous is on the way out, the engine is bullet proof, the FL2's weaker pointsis its transmission - so whining from mid/rear when driving is a nono ( ignore tyre noise), and clunking from rear when selecting gears or maneuvering at ful lock is a nono ( dif issues which I have had before). Oh, FL2's prefer, and do dirve better IMHO with a matching tyre set ![]() |

wouldnt worry about brake pipes, they are part of a MOT, besides they do last a long time, though the flexible hoses that run from the calipers are prone to damage wear off road, again part of a MOT, and a DIY change for some

How much do you think I could squeeze off I don't want to sound too cheeky as we all know this is a cracking price.

My hunch is it will cost you a lot down the line.

i would guess the interior dust is due to workers wearing dirty clothes, driving with windows down in dirty/dusty conditions, not by bypassing the seals and filters |
