    Looking for a cheap but sensible towing vehicle (not for a car but for my bike + trailer) Perferably estate/touring or something with decent boot space for gear.. It will be my daily too so needs to be a nice place to be in as well.

    Will be selling my van.. perfect for you drifters wanting to save on hotels throughout season ( Iveco daily, with bed conversion and tons of storage.) or for any MX guys looking to improve their setups (as thats what I bought it for). I would also be open to px's or swaps on it. I value the van at 2.2k ONO - comes with 3 months MOT and 6 months tax.


    Will also (most likely) be selling the Turbo MX5 to help fund the car too.. so could be open to p/.x's or swaps if people are interested. This has brand spanking new MOT and 4months tax.


    sad times.

    I I had a spare 3-5k ( obviously depends on how much u get for Yours ) I'd be all over a manual LPG stagea. Massive, soooo comfy, fast and reliable. Easy to manual ( gtst or gtr stuff ) and did I mention cheap

    Just a manual would increase the mpg by 10mpg... It cant use much more than a skyline with the same running gear surely, just a bit bigger and heavier.

    Anyway, fuck the stagea and buy my Aristo:thumbs:

    I didn't know they had smaller turbos, in that case just stick a hx35 on it and be done:thumbs:


    Hurry up then dude, sooner rather than later will be much preferred...:thumbs:

    Iv got a full manual conversion for that;)



    You soon forget about the economy when you drive off in ultimate comfort and at warp speed, with your telescopic corner marker...lol
    To be honest, it's not that bad when it's in ECO mode:thumbs:
