Clean mk3 only 31k miles

Is it me or does the paint look very fresh?

Mot history check only shows 1 year? Irish import? or any idea??? Done check via my mobile so might not be accurate?

Would go and view it myself but way too far for me, like the clean look of no sliding door though.

Ignore the bit about mot history etc above, I wasn't doing it properly, I'm not good on the mobile, fat fingers and bad eyes.

Mot history looks better than average for a transit that age (better than any of mine!), a few bits of suspension mounting rot and the usual woes.

Might be the overspray on the tyres that makes the paint look very fresh :lol:

that was buzzing around the Lancashire area for a few years it was a 2.0 petrol then with fat alloys on always seemed tidy and well kept, with an engine swap the engine could be any mileage

you will need to change the logbook details at dvla or your insurance may be void they might ask for proof of change ie letter from a bona fide garage
