General Where have they all gone?

[Muppet1]

There used to be a time when there were plenty about but now sadly they are not. If anyone happens to see a multiwagon JTD for sale can you let me know? I am missing having one in my life. Thanks.

Where have they all gone?​

Smelter?

I think so too.
Low market value, many consumers don't want Stilo and it's hard to get parts, always have to order from Italy on Ebay etc. Also rusting and no one wants to repair it so it's scrap metal for recycling.

A case of dust to dust...

Unfortunately they weren't that popular in the first place, so 20 years later there's not much of a following, most garages have no experience and don't want to know, main dealer no interest whatsoever (here anyway), so they're dying off one by one .

Mine will have it's 2 yearly CT next month, and if there's anything serious to do on it, it'll join the others in the great scrapyard in the sky.

My car got to about 225k before the diff in the gearbox failed, but by that stage it was consuming vast amounts of oil and all the paint was falling off..
Still have it sitting outside next to the shed, and a parts car with a good gearbox but now you can't get all the parts to do a clutch

Still dreaming of doing something with it, but each day brings it closer to the crusher, can't even find anyone that wants any parts from my cars now..

Sad news, but I don't believe that parts for the Clutch can't be found, and as seen on here, even the 'obsolete' Release bearing for the sillyspeed gearbox which was unobtainable anywhere, was sorted out with new seals by 'Charl73', and apparently has worked fine ever since .

Although at this stage whether or not it's actually worth your time and effort to fix it, is unknown .
