1996 850tdi estate

[cardo70]

My faithful old 850 tdi manual is looking for a new home....
It's a 1996 mettalic grey estate with 205k on the clock....the odometer stopped working a few months ago,so I would reckon it has a genuine 208k now.The last MOT will confirm the mileage.
It has a healthy 5 cylinder tdi engine that runs well but could do with a set of glow plugs as it now needs a few goes from cold to start.
Grey half leather with usual bolster wear on drivers seat,but good apart from that.
Winter pack with heated seats,etc.
Tow bar with electrics.
4 nearly new tyres on 16" perfo alloys
Car dives well and will return 40 odd mpg on a run.
MOT'd till mid December this year.
Body work is presentable with a little corrosion on the bottom edges of the doors showing.
The car needs a few common 850 niggles sorted...
ABS module requires a repair...£60 or DIY if you've got a big enough soldering iron...
Blower motor only works on full,new resistor required.
Ignition switch needs a wiggle sometimes....
Handbrake needs adjusted/new shoes.
Tailgate trim needs re attached.
With a little bit of attention the car should provide good service for a few years.
I've had it for three years and it has been a great car.It has never let me down and I would have no qualms about jumping in it to go anywhere.
The car is located near to Glasgow airport.
I'll post some pictures later today.
£400 Ono

I live just nearby, pretty sure I've seen this car running & driving around the west end (last summer, dark met grey?), if anyone needs someone local to look at it before they travel give me a shout.

Do you have the pictures you mention, Cardo70?

That is a very nice offer brickman.

Sorry for the slow picture upload.....the car sold before I had the chance to get some up on the thread.
