1988 760 2.3 turbo auto estate for sale - SOLD

fatgeezer · Jan 1st, 2009, 12:09

MOT to March 18th - tax til end of March. A mere 221,000 miles. Runs well but apparently needs a new fuel pump relay as it cuts out now and again (it always restarts easily). Will need the n/s/f brake calliper replacing for next MOT as there is a problem with it. Have taken ABS relay out so brakes perfectly well (by not using the ABS) but of course the ABS light stays on. Other than that mechanically she is fine. Interior is the tan coloured leather which is in OK condition. Electric drivers seat works fine - n/s/f window does'nt work - n/s/r window only comes down a few inches - other two work. Electric sunroof works. Headlining shot to bits!!. All gauges work (rare) except the red low fuel warning light does'nt come on (I assume it has one). Radio/cassette is kaput. Bodily she is nice and straight but the tailgate has succumbed to 'cancer' and is a bit of a mess also will not open without the use of a dog lead (supplied!!) attatched to the interior handle which pokes out the back ready for use. She is the seven seater and it looks as if the rear seats have never been used. Alloy wheels are OK with good tyres (one tyre is only a month old). There is rust on the roof where the feet of the factory fitted chrome roof bars are attatched and also some on the sunroof. She comes with a FULL SERVICE HISTORY with bills for around £10k. Car has only covered 8k miles since November 2003!!. She would benefit from a now due service. She is dark blue in colour. Apart from the cutting out she has been reliable for the two short months I have had her and always starts 'on the button'. Can get £150 from a company that exports them. £185 with the tax - £150 without (cash only). Car is in Eastbourne,East Sussex and will need to be picked up from there - cannot deliver. Will try to add photo's asap. PM me for a phone number or more details.
