Anyone live in/near Wigan and knows their shiznit about motors?

[ben]

Looking at a van on eBay which is up in Wigan.

I can go up there in a few weeks to see it, but to be honest, I won't know what I'm looking for - so if someone is around that area and knows whether a motor is good value or not, would it be possible to drop in to the showroom and have a look at it?

Plus if I can do Stanford and this in one trip, it would make my life much easier

Ideally you need to be good at bartering too, as I want to get the cost down a bit

its too cheap, as it is.
and its hardly moved

 

[ben]

No idea what you mean?

Anyway, bumping this for the evening crew

 

[ben]

Really... no one can help?

If it's for 'the new FF bus' then I don't see why you can't e-mail every member asking them if they can help, just seems like a quicker method to get your point across? I would help out but im miles away from Wigan.

This is cheaper and has a lot less miles on it?

Too big - that's the same size as the old bus.

I'm looking for a MWB, ideally in Blue. Much easier to find places to park it then.

SWB *might* be ok, but worried it's a little too short.

 

[Shadeyman]

Oh, ok then. How about this, its cheaper, blue and has less miles on it.

SWB though

Contact seller and ask for measurements of inside if you are unsure if its the right length

Davren already went to see that one - says it was terrible.

A shame, coz it was close to my house so would have been easy to pick up.

As for dimensions, a MWB will fit everything inside end to end - a SWB might fit things, but would need to put things at angles.

Once Dave finally finishes measuring everything, I can put it into my 3D diagram to try and figure it all out ..

Fiat Ducato identical too:

Peugeot Boxer

Citroen Relay

Citroen Jumper

Buy one of these and change the grills/badges to Fiat?
