    That looks like a nice straight one you've got yourself there, whats the interior like and how many miles has it done?

    Any mods done to it by the previous owner(s)?

    You had that cheap mate fair play. I was on about buying that to break it & rape it for what I need. Glad you bought it to keep it on the road.

    ok so i went and picked this up today, the car was being advertised as spares or repairs as it had a power loss/cut out problem, i offered him £700 on ebay and he accepted when i arrived i looked at it and thought wtf??? there is hardly a mark on it interior is dark with silver trim it has 175k with full history has an awd system that works, it even has a hard wired in sat nav lol. The reason i chose this was i thought the problem sounds like a simple one to sort out, i headed down to surrey today with the maf off my 850r, i bought the car, drove 2 miles down the road and stopped i then put my bluetooth code reader on it and what came up? the mass air flow lol, i swapped over the mafs and cleared the codes, the lambda light went out on the dash, i then drove the 80 miles home without fault lol, this is a 2 grand v70r all day long in this condition.

    its totally standard at the moment, even has some nice toyo proxes all round, this one has been looked after, i am well chuffed
    the reason i wanted an estate is i need a 7 seater so i was going to covert this one but guess what it already is a 7 seater, i cant believe my luck today lol
