SWAP my T5 2.5 174bhp for your Bay.

I have a 2007 Kombi Shuttle (9 seats removable) T5 2.5 174bhp 170,000ish on the clock. Goes like the wind, no issues, receipts for all major works, DMF at 128,000, clutch and turbo all done. Body tired in a couple of places and small scuff to rear bumper but would clean up really nice very easily. Webasto Heater, 2 x swivel seats fitted to front. Bike rack and roof bars. Rear bench folds in on itself so you can make a bed deck in middle area for a nights camping if needed.

Worth around £8500-£9500 depending who you talk to and what day it is. Looking to swap for a bay for my hire business with possible cash to you up to you. Located in North Devon.

What have you?

 

Whats the yearly road tax on this?

All standard stuff though.

I want a shuttle at the moment but I need to sell my Tiguan first

 

@Robo is selling his bay and after a t5 not sure if you could come to an agreement but i thought i'd put it out there.

 

Thanks for the input Razzyh, however I'd like to draw attention to that fact that on the last MOT the only advisory was the below. I'm sure if we looked back at everyone's MOT history it would show a shopping list to make most VW owners wife's scared.


Advisory notice item(s)
offside front Anti-roll bar linkage has slight play in a ball joint (2.4.G.2)

 

Yeh but thats all in the past. Its the future that matters with these buses!

 

£304.50 last time it was due.

 

out of interest, how did you find this info out Razzyh?

 

very true....

 

Public knowledge just google mot history.

 

Really? I didn't know that....

 

presume that's one of the reasons people blank out the registration number on public sites....

 

Good engines in them 174 brake no timing belt all cogs I looked at one when I was getting mine, awesome fast, it's a bit off posting "negative" stuff on public forum tho, the mot history is buyer beware and anyway it's nothing bad the last mot is all that matters

 

Merely posting that the mot garage like their advisories, quite stringent which is only a good thing.

And as you said, nothing bad.

I once had a 3 year old car that failed it's MOT. inFact it bloody failed every mot on silly things like no water in washer!

 

That's poor preparation by the owner

 

Service & mot what can go wrong....

 

For a year?

Just checking

 

Would you be interested in a left hooker?

 

The 2.5 injun is mega emmisions some are in the £400 mark..... Hence the panel converts being cheaper at £225 as its lgv tax
