'98 R Transit 130 Di 6 seats (used to be 15), long wheelbase, semi-high roof in Moondust Silver. 198,200 miles, covered in the service history by Somerset Council, Sedgemoor district since 2000 iirc and until January 2011.

It runs as well as my previous transit, an ex-builders van with 110,000 miles which died of rot. Naturally for a council van it has been regularly maintained and repaired, as proven by the s/h.
I will be giving her a service before handing her over. Soon after the service I am planning to tidy up the body rot. The arches, a bump and the bottom of one of the back doors need seeing to. The chassis had its first weld 2 MOTs ago with little else of concern.

Comes with a tow hitch and roof rack.

76ps, pump and EGR tweaked for power over economy, easy to undo if that isn't preferred. It will tow a 1.2t caravan around rural wales quite happily, just no getaways. I get 27mpg around town, 27mpg on a motorway flat out and 45mpg behind the lorries on the motorway, weighting 2.3t (2t empty).

I am considering selling it (p/x considered) for a change of scene and because I dont need it for what it's capable of any longer.

With a service and 6 months tax I ask £900. With a fresh MOT as well I would like £1000.
I am based 25 miles south of Bristol
