Buying A VTR

[SaxoTaz]

Hi Everyone, I'm going to look at a VTR next week it's an 03 reg and wanted to get some information of you guys n gals on here who have/had a VTR before. I just wanted to know if there was anything major to look for and listen for when I take it for a test run. Many thanks

gearbox and drive shaft are the main things. rear bushes.

Cool, what would be wrong with the gearbox if anything bud also the drive shafts. Are they an expensive fix? Ive got a Saxo Desire at the moment and havent had any problems with it over the 3 years ive had it.

jack it up at the back, wiggle the wheel/tyre left to right, up and down and make sure there isn't any play - if there is the beams on its way out

opne bonnet look at suspension top mounts and mounts look for rust around the turrets etc....look for excesive movement or camber on the rear wheels,driving,listen for clicks,loud gearbox etc

rust on the boot floor?

Look under the ECU in the engine bay, common place to rust/rot

Most important imo are:

Rear axle - Can be expensive to get a new one.
Gear Box
Drive Shafts
