Hey Everyone,

I`m new to the forum and need to ask some advice. I am in the process of buying a v8 90 at the moment.

Can you guys have a look at these photos and tell me if you notice anything about the left front corner?

Is it me or is turned in?? I was looking at the wear on the tyre too and it seems worn on the outside. I havent been aboe to see the truck yet.

Thanks for your help

Dave

the winch bumper doesn't have a flat front face, hence it looks like it's "turned in"

Like Sean says its just the shape of the winch bumper which is deeper in the centre to accomodate the winch gubbins and tapers back towards the corners.
Bumper needs wire brushing and a coat of paint though and the winch rollers have seen better days. Nothing to worry about but you might be able to knock a few quid off the price.

Thanks for that. I was just a tad worried as from what I can see in the 1st photo it looks like the inside of the tyre is clean off the ground.?
