What to look for when buying a L200?

#1 by Guest , Tue Feb 10, 2015 6:26 pm

Hiya everyone, I joined the other day (still waiting to have my account upgraded... ;))

I'm planning on getting an L200 later in the year and as part of my "swotting up" before I buy one I thought I'd ask what are the obvious things to look out for when buying one?

Also - when I've got one I wanna make mod it with things like

Snorkel
Wheel spacers
Lift kit
Spotlights galore
OtherstuffthatIdon'tknowyetbutwillbecooltohave!!!

I'm not a mechanic but my brother is (sooo handy!) so he'll definitely get roped in to having a look with me when the time is right :)

Cheers in advance for any help and advice :D

First off - I've been a right div... Totally forgot to sign in! (Maz)

So I'm not a guest but rather a new member lol

Okay, budget is gonna be £2,500 to £3,000 (more like £2,500 though)

Age - 02 plate maybe?
