This VM Transit T350 140 (2.4 TDCi, RWD, LWB, Mid-roof) was declared a Repairable Write-Off (Financial) after a front end collision. The damage was fairly minimal, the airbag was not deployed, and the vehicle still drove just as straight, and just as good as before the accident. The van has only traveled 182000 km's (mostly highway... delivering wine), is in great mechanical condition and has been serviced by Ford all of its life (next service due at 195000 kms). It drives and handles superbly! I recently drove the van through 150 km's of windy/hilly roads and was so impressed with the grunt of the engine and the handling of the chassis. It's actually quite fun to drive, with effortless pull, great steering, and good traction. A friend also recently borrowed the van, since having it repaired, and used it to move relocate to Corryong (530kms NE of Ballarat). He said it performed faultlessly, and couldn't praise it highly enough.

The van has been professionally repaired (receipts provided), and will come with a VIV certificate and RWC... nothing for the buyer to do but register. The only reason I'm selling the van unregistered is because it would otherwise mean stamp duty would need to be paid twice (once at registration and once at transfer).

The only other issues I've noticed with the van are:

*Drivers door doesn't always lock with the remote. Unlocks fine, and still locks with key -
*Small dent in bonnet
*A few small pin dents and a minor scrape on the sides
*Drivers seat arm rest damaged
*Vinyl sticker glue residue very slightly visible.... in the right lighting.

None of these problems I'd personally worry about... just trying to be honest.

You will struggle to find a LWB VM Transit in this condition, with under 200000 Km's, for effectively $15600 drive-away with 12 months reg. The van has an unregistered vehicle permit that is valid until 17/09/14, the RWC has been completed, and the VIV will be done on Wednesday (03/09/14)... it is ready to be sold immediately! I can arrange registration for interstate buyers (at buyers expense).

PLEASE IGNORE THE PRICE ON THE BACK WINDOW... OLD PRICE, BEFORE RECENT WORK!

Texts, calls, inspections and test drives are welcome! May consider swaps.

    • Yeah, it is possible. But like many related things (ie, alternators), it's getting harder to find anyone who does and will, given the change to just throwing shit away and replacing with new cheap shit from Chinese factories. If you want to pursue the option of rebuilding, you'll have to dig up an auto A/C specialist or three to find out whether they still do.
    • There are a few, but not that many. Also, there are no such rules when it comes to importing, just taxes and paperwork in general. The only rule I can think of is excise tax, which is 3.1% for cars with an engine under 2 liters and 18.6% over. About mods coming to the car, I've already bought Tein Flex Z coilovers and TE37s S Plus in diamond dark gunmetal (front 8.5" x 18" +35, rear 9.5" x 18" +22). Rims will be here in March. When the car arrives, I'll probably do a custom turboback and some exterior mods. I will keep you updated on my progress here! :)
    • Rb26 has gone in to a gt 4 r34 model
