1998 MV6......135k ish

Runs perfectly..... The guy who had it before us had it from new virtually and he didn't skimp on anything engine wise..I rang the main dealer up in Blackpool where it had been serviced all its life and asked them to send me a print out of all the work that has been carried out.. They did that and it makes a good read, like I said no expense spared

Just a shame he didn't show that much attention to the bodywork.. We have done what we can but the rust is really setting in now and there comes a time when it dosen't make any sense to plough loads of money on say a re-spray.
