i want to buy a fourtrack

Forum: 

Hello, as the title says i'm thinking of buying a fourtrack. Had a drive in a 95 one last night and going to look at a couple more tomorrow so i've a couple of basic questions Smile The one we looked at last night (151k miles, good condition £2850) had the 2 seats in the boot but we couldn't see any seat belts, is that normal? What sort of mpg should i expect for normal driving and when towing a caravan?

2WD 4trak. Except it's a forenza?

Forum: 

Anyone ever heard of these befor? Where would it have come from? It's a Forenza (Arn't they Sportrak equivilants usually?), but it's only 2WD, and it's mounted in a 4trak body. At the mo it's on the link bellow (e-bay). I think thats a sportrak engin (it does say 1600). Notice the destinct lack of FWH. Why would you want a 2WD off roader?

Fourtrak 1990 G, petrol, good investment?

Forum: 

Hi,

I really like the Fourtrak's, but I've never owned one as yet. However, I have the chance to buy a Fourtrak 2.0 petrol, on a G plate.

It looks in good condition, bodywork is all tidy and what have you - but having never owned one I don't know what to look for, or if its best to try and get a diesel engine?

Are the petrol's any good or would it really be best to look for a diesel? He wants £900 for it - I have no idea if that's good or bad. It's got 44000 on the clock. Do 1990 Fourtrak's have 5 digit clocks and this could've rolled over once, (or twice!!)

Which model ?

Forum: 

Hi
I have just bought an old Daihatsu 4x4 the log book has no model name on it it was built in 1979. Can anyone tell me the model I have found a name F50 on the body would this be right? It has a complete fiberglass body and is in good condition. I need a service manual any ideas where I can get one. As you can tell I am a complete novice to 4x4s!!!:help.
Many thanks
Wendy
