VW Caddy Van, 1997, 5 months MOT 3 months tax

Featured Replies

1997 R reg

White

1.9 SD

149,000+ (still being used)

good points:

*Alloy wheels

*good on fuel

*CD player

*P.A.S

*very reliable

*push button start

*MOT until july 2011

*3 months tax

*new clutch a few hundred miles ago

*drivers airbag

*adjustable steering wheel (height)

*clean inside

*Towbar

*all lights in gwo

*polo CL seats

Bad points:

*passenger door handle doesn't work (i imagine an easy fix, it just hasn't bothered me)

*1st and second needs a bit of effort to put in (been told by my mechanic friend it's just a piece of the linkage is needed)

*heater blower not working (could just be a fuse but havn't checked as it doesn't bother me)

this van isn't in perfect nick as is expected of a 1997 workhorse, it was owned by a lady before myself (used to transport curtains and cushions)

so hasn't been ragged but has its small dents, scratches and patches.

*needs rear shocks (it's a bouncy ride, does'nt bother me but being honest)

*front springs are cut, but will probably have coilovers by the time i sell as they are only £130

engine wise its pukka, no problems with it at all, starts first time everytime, has some history and previous MOT's.

i can never seem to find them for less than £1k so offers near to that

viewings are welcome and can see it running, it's in christchurch, dorset BH23

or give me a call or text on 07842978558

cheers, miles.

I thought the same mate with my estate yet cant sell.How often do you drive round and see the usual modded vw's gofs/polo's etc.These look super cool when modded even if just slammed with some cool rims.
