Amongst my various purchases last year was a 'nice' Seat Marbella in red. I stripped the interior out and sort of fitted a mishmash of an alternative. I then gave it to two girls down the road who used it for a while and then passed it on to a friend.
As far as I'm aware it's still M.O.T.'d, but the lad has just been re-housed and is jobless.
It's an externally tidy motor; the only real rot being on the external o/s windscreen pillar above the intake.
The floorpan will take all standard 4x4 fittings, but it is fitted with one of those 'eco'-computer controlled engines and is described as being VERY 'green'.
I got rid very quickly...but would it suit you? The lad just wants shut.......

Tell him to sell it on eBay, or put it on for him. I've seen them get £200 plus.

Thank you for that. It's my next step, but I thought I'd offer it here first.
