Talk me out of it.....
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie...TQ:GB:1123

I was considering a nice TDCi 90 for the 2nd car and then this popped up. Always like the TD5's cos they are the nicest sounding but anyone got any issue with a crew cab? Maybe not what the wife expects but hey.....!! 1951 80" S1 2.0

In short - no and no Laughing

In my book TD5's are excellent, sound is brilliant especially with a special exhaust fitted, they pull well etc. Only down side I can see is the need for an overdrive or the likes for long journeys.

Double cab is brilliant, my 2009 does everything I need it for.

Of course, this is a totally unbiased answer (just don't look at my signature) Rolling with laughter

Buy it Thumbs Up

discovery transfer box sots the low gearing out.

a decent tune, interccoler, exhaust and hybrid turbo sort the td5 flat spot off boost.

a DC is different and with a cage on is very practical

Sorry for the hijack FM Thumbs Up

Thanks Steve. Been reading about them just need to find a good one at a sensible price.

End hijack Laughing

DC's are commercials so tend to be advertised ex VAT. Private ones like mine will be advertised VAT inclusive, probably end up at the same price but can be misleading.

No it's not, "Great value at £14,400 including VAT" the listed price includes VAT, so any offer you make also includes VAT.
