says £3000 (no vat) so there might be £600 on top, but still good for a bean

No black tabs on the front bumper.

 

[daddycool]

it can be charged, if vat has been reclaimed for whatever reason. i think.

If you are vat registered, you as a trader pay vat on your gross profit margin. The vat is not reclaimable by anyone, vat registered or not. Vans are charged the full vat on the sale price.

Excuse the uneducated here, but what black tabs do we talk about? how do we know it's been in a front ender? new to this..

 

[daddycool]

if you look at the 4th pic at the long narrow grill just above the plate, in the corners of that grill you usually get black tabs, ie

Not read the ad tbh but if belts have been done there's a good chance the tabs have not been put back on. Mine haven't and belts were done during my ownership

Why would you remove some black stickers when doing a cambelt change?

I was thinking exactly the same thing tbh flol

 

[Nickw88]

Hmm, maybe I've been a bit of a plonker. I thought they may come off if the bumper was removed hence why I said what did. I clearly have no mechanical knowledge/lack common sense
