Hi jules sorry to hear your selling that beutiful specimen of swedish reliability.
By the way folks it's year is 89,My estate is dark blue and I think it's a good colour.Mine has lots of dings and scratches though .
I'm sure you will sell it especially for so little money.
Good luck anyway regards Brian.

Looks a very tidy motor Jules. How do you rate the Bilstein's?

I might be interested in this. What's the interior like, any pics of it?
And does anyone know how serious or otherwise the leaky seal is, and what would be involved in fixing it?

we just use it as is quite a firm ride especially with the virgos but at least it doesnt wallow or wobble on corners , i suspect previous owner used it as a caravan tug ( twin electrics fitted ) so thats prob why the shocks are upgraded
its not a harsh ride , you can push on nicely , even on the rutted tracks up here that pass for roads

the leaky seal involves ( to repair ) dropping the cross member , removing prop shaft and unbolting tail end extension of gearbox . i replaced the seal in april and have another seal for replacement .
its not a bad leak , more a misting around the area of the gearbox tail end.
very little on the ground after parking overnight
