Yeah but The first to drive this van will buy it. We’ll also change the bottom-half to a colour of your choice. So that's with a respray
yep it's march 78 the good one is 86k from new..... er no. lol the speedo cable was bust when i got it and hadn't worked for 2 years.
All this misrepresentation does reflect badly on their brand and screams dodgy moral compass! I was lining them up to get Litesteer fitted on my van as they are close and now am thinking 'are these the kind of people I want to deal with?' May have to explore other options as a result of Champers episode.
You thought that all along no? It doesn't mean you lost out - people happily pay a premium to a dealer - fact.
Yes i thought it fishy I never met or spoke to "Fraser" only e mail, I suspected summat when I dealt with "Paul " from vwd but I would still have sold, I guess some sellers don't like selling if they think someone is gonna profit? Personally I asked 16k on the ad, and 15k on here, they paid 15.5k so good luck to them, I just think it's naughty saying mileage is true.
It now has a three month warrenty ... People just buy stuff and sell it for more ,it is the way of the world...
I'd agree "low mileage" and "86k miles from new" might be stretching the truth then. If it were true mileage then it would only be 2,260 miles per year. Mine shows 97,500 and is a 1972 so that is only 2,270 miles per year, that's relatively consistent (mine is also a US import). I wonder ..... is mine a 'low' mileage bus as well?
just remembered 5 years ago today i got the bay - that went fast, i see it's "sale pending" on vw downunders site........ from the archives...
i just did an mot check on the old girl and notice it had one in april so maybe sold? it's taxed and mot'd at the moment so looks probable, i notice the 1st mot after my sale was a fail...... i'm assuming the electrics didn't like sitting and they maybe stole my nice chrome mirrors.... 16 April 2016 Test ResultFail Odometer reading86,817 miles MOT test number1551 0388 3635 Reason(s) for failure nearside Headlamp not working on dipped beam (1.7.5a) offside Headlamp not working on dipped beam (1.7.5a) nearside Headlamp not working on main beam (1.7.5a) offside Headlamp not working on main beam (1.7.5a) Main beam 'tell-tale' not working (1.7.4c) Direction indicators not working (1.4.A.2c) Indicator tell tale inoperative (1.4.A.2a) nearside Battery insecure (1.9.1) Horn not working (1.6.2a) nearside Windscreen wiper not operating automatically when switched on (8.2.1b) offside Windscreen wiper not operating automatically when switched on (8.2.1b) Windscreen washer provides insufficient washer liquid (8.2.3) nearside Obligatory mirror missing (8.1.1) offside Obligatory mirror missing (8.1.1) nearside rear Exhaust system not adequately supported mounting bolt loose (7.1.1) also shock horror....
