'Upgraded' MK4 AstraVan 1.7TD MOT & TAX
I am selling my trusty MK4 AstraVan..
It's got MOT until September 2014 (yes, next year) and TAX until end of September 2013
It has been 'upgraded' since I bought it...
Vectra SRi front seats (with pull out leg bolsters)
Leather steering wheel with stereo controls
Vauxhall 4 CD changer in the glovebox
Bertone center console in grey with CD storage unit
Front and Rear security grilles
LED roof mounted Recovery lightbar
Rear spoiler
Tinted rear lights
Towbar and single electrics
GSi Black headlights
Debadged grille
Heko wind deflectors
Astra Cabriolet 16Inch alloys with good 205/50-16 Tyres
It is 2 tone white/green from new (Wessex water I think..)
1.7TD Vauxhall engine pulls very well, 5 speed gearbox & clutch are good, no slippage.
It is ply lined in the rear and then mats on top.
It's done 162000 miles but drives like it's done half that. Always reliable, with no problems through the severe cold and hot we have had.
There are some no so good bits...
Advisory's from the MOT..
1 Offside front anti-roll bar linkage has slight play in a ball joint (£6 off Ebay or £26 genuine Vauxhall)
2 o/s & n/s rear inner sills slightly corroded
3 o/s/r & n/s/r brake pipes slightly corroded
4 o/s & n/s rear wheel arches slightly corroded
There is a slight clunk over bumps from the front (which I guess is the advised drop link)
The starter always over runs slightly for a split second when started and has done since I bought it but always works and doesn't stick
The fuel guage is a bit odd...If you fill the tank to the brim it shows full, however within 20 miles or so it sinks down to between 1/4 & 1/2 a tank where it will stay until you use enough fuel to get down to where the needle is and then it goes down as normal, the fuel light works as it should, so it's not really a bad issue as it work fine for the last 1/3 of a tank so you won't run out unexpectedly.
There is a small screw holding the left front bumper corner in place.
It's 13 years old and a workhorse so it has some marks and minor dents but overall as you'll see from the pictures looks very good for it's age.
Viewing and test drive is recommended.
£1000 o.n.o
Any questions, please ask.
A cheap PX may be considered.
