Very tidy Daf 66

Post by **foggyjames** » 31 Aug 2006 09:34 pm

Not a 300, but the next best thing

It looks mighty clean! It's a 72/73 L plate, which makes it right on the borderline for being tax exempt. The owner is in the middle of getting the production date clarified, which might well tip it over the edge into tax exemption. 20k miles.

No tax, no MOT, needs a battery, but should run. Is available for very little cash, to a good home. PM me for more info.

cheers

theres a 55 estate near me going for £900 - 30k on the clock

james - i'd reccomend to the owner to approach collectors/museums with that one

Museum isn't a bad plan, looking at how clean it is.

what a beauty, that is very original, yes the tyres are original michelin zx 155's which you cannot buy any more. wish mine was as tidy as that. would be tempted but really want an early 340 vario.

the only trouble with early daf 66's is that every one that i have brought is the diaphragms are always ruptured as they have a poorly finished sealing ring but easy job and you can do them in the car!

does look nice!!

G'wan Paul, give it a good home. This came out of my enquiries regarding obtaining a car to export to Germany - but it came too late.

That car looks cracking, I would be almost terrified to own it in case it got damaged (isn't that always the problem!!

I have a garage space available too

How quickly do they want to be rid of it? I'd need to make some enquiries about a lock-up first.

I think the phrase was something like "I want my new car in the garage for the winter".

hi,

crazy idea... if we all want to keep this car but no one person has space/ money for the car, how about a join ownership? clearly needs clear documentation how its going to work and agreements between owners but.....any chance?

I can source a garage for £40 a month...

storage costs £480 a year..

It starts to get complex in terms of for whom it is of benefit. I think it's easiest for it to be 'someones' car, and although I'd like to see it go to a good home, I'm not in the "chip in a tenner a month" category of love for the thing...

cheers
