If you buy second hand I’d try get one that’s never had tow hitch, cheaper to fit one, speshully if I’m previous owner.

Now to really upset the s###cart.. Mrs Bagshot has had two FL1's. Both been acceptable, (TD4's). When they are 4wd (lots of props taken off for noisy centre bearings), it really is a go anywhere truck. Harrowed with it, pulled full horse trailers and recovered my old doozel when it went pop.!
Couple of really bad ideas though, window mechs made of garden string and door seals made of cotton wool. Apart from that..

The FL section is full of posts like that. They are good with photoshop.

It’s okay for the misses to have a FL or 2, (we don’t believe you) (we believe you)
Ant lets his have one and she’s an Adonis, really it’s hers...
no he was just taking it to get fuel for her that one time....honest

Must admit a neighbor has just got rid of one as something on the front drive train went and he just went out and got a kia, i did look at having it off him if it was being scraped and fixing it as it was an 06 plate td4, but the thoughts passed thankfully.

I found out today it had a noisy clutch release bearing and needed new pads and discs, he sold it on fleebay for £500, as he reckoned it needed £1000 spent on it.
