Description
2400cc petrol, manual.
This white Volkswagen LT35 dropside lorry is described by the vendor as "running well and reliable".
He tells us it has received quite an extensive bodywork renovation at some stage, together with the installation of its aluminium rear body and hydraulic crane.
Mo
T tests have been carried out almost every year, and we’re told it has not been used on gritted roads during winter.
The current Mo
T is valid to 6th May 2027, and the odometer shows 58,719 miles. The vendor has owned it since 2021 and reports getting good use from the hydraulic crane, though not many miles have been covered.
The V5C records 7 keepers before him, and the paperwork includes details of all these, together with a mileage record which supports the odometer reading, plus Mo
T certificates (2024 and 2027) and a few receipts from the last few years. The vendor advises that the speedo cable has broken. NOTICE TO BUYERS: Please be aware that all lots are sold as seen and without any war...
