angus Posted February 22, 2009 Share Posted February 22, 2009 (edited) You`ll need a full service (bearings, tyres, lights, internal electrics, gas etc), but before you splash out, what are you going tow it with and is it up to the task? You wouldn`t credit the number of people that buy vans only to find they haven`t got the car to safely do the job, make sure this is OK before going any further.

I don't know about in your area but there are some mobile service engineers about the country, Regards, Ian.
