Re: Worth saving????
It's a shame the Daf guys are only interested in 300's for the vario ness, lots of manual mk1's seem to get ignored and auto mk2/3's lost to them 
Nose cone on that one looks rough, shame theres not some more pictures.

Re: Worth saving????
Equally Chris you can flip that statement on its head. I've seen perfectly good Varios ignored or butchered. Either the auto being undesirable or a belt drive CVT being doubly so.Chris_C wrote:It's a shame the Daf guys are only interested in 300's for the vario ness, lots of manual mk1's seem to get ignored and auto mk2/3's lost to them
Re: Worth saving????
Yeah, I guess so mate. I'm glad there's finally starting to be a bit of crossover between V3M and the Daf lot, hopefully they'll be a blurring of the auto/manual type lot.

Re: Worth saving????
I wonder how good/bad/ugly it is. Shame to see it broken if it's tidy.

Re: Worth saving????
Hi all.
I e-mailed the bloke asking if it had a centre consol gauge panel. It did not.
He sent me a few photos of the interier and it looked spot on.
I told him about V3M so he might get it on here.
Cheers Mark.
