Do u think its worth it!!!! NO ITS NOT!!!!!!!!
Xtremeteam:
if any one cares to look through the mags you will find that 90's are holding there prices,
there are some cheap ones about but not specced like that,
i got a B plate 90 on a replacement chassis which i fitted a TDI into & get offers to sell it regularly,id have a proper look round it but wouldnt ignore it cos of the age
landyman Ash:
I agree with Mikee, 90's hold their value.
If its got a 200tdi and the chassis and bulkhead are all in good nick with all that gear on I dont think you'd get much better
It is down to condition of the vital bits though. Look at the truck, forget the bits :wink:
PUX:
ASH NO PROB MATE WAS IGNORING THE BITS IT LOOKS REALLY CLEAN SO WHEN I LOOK AT IT I WILL FORGET THE AGE ANYWAY THERE JUST TECHNIC LEGO BIG BOYS :twisted: AND MIKE UR RITE IT IS A WELL LOOKED AFTER TRUCK THAT HAS HAD THE MOST OF ITS BITS REPLACED AND ALSO WHO IN THERE RITE MIND WOULD BOLT A SAFETY DEVICES CAGE TO A CRAP CHASSI

Nothing would suprise me.... I've looked at Land Rovers whose owners have spent loads on paint jobs, or engines... but never noticed the chassis is made of filler.....
Looking at the picture....
Safety Devices Roll Cage: Might be, but doesn't look like standard mounting to me... unless the cage is a modified (110") Tomb Raider Cage.
Would be interesting to see if it was actually mounted to the chassis!!!
Doors are of a post '86 90" or 110".... which may have bad oxidation judging by the acres of chequer plate attached to them...
Passenger wing, if air intake hole isn't bodged is also post '86. (not that this really matters)
8 Previous owners (again not that this matters).
IMHO the price is a little bit steep... if it had been rebuilt on a galvanised chassis or similar then it would be better.
In all honesty, that sort of money would get you a 'standard' 200Tdi... with extra's.
Off road kit, whilst nice, wouldn't justify the increase in price over a standard C reg 90".
The 200Tdi conversion... whilst nice... has it been done properly, has the engine got numbers, any history???
Not saying it's a bad motor.... but at the same time don't go jumping with both feet.
