Hello,

Bought an '03 plate gassed Hijet van as a 2nd (3rd?) vehicle/camper/personal works canteen/day van.

It needs a bit of tlc so I may be asking questions.


Tara for now.

What have you done?
Either bought a fun wee van or an overheating nightmare, depending on how good it is..... Wink

Well, it currently looks like a bag of carp at the mo' due to the silver/grey paint deciding to part company with the metalwork on the roof. Few bangs and dinks in the sliding doors, but I'm looking to put some windows in there later so that should deal with that. Oh, and the door sliders need looking at.

...and the rear tailgate needs a bit of welding sort the cracks in the skin around the numberplate...

...and the speedo cable has snapped...

...and the fuel gauge isn't working...

...and a wheel stud is awol...

...probably needs a new cambelt too...


but worst of all the stereo isn't working affraid

Welcome to the forum. The snapped speedo cable will cause running issues so best to get that sorted....along with the rest of the jobs Laughing

Factory silver paint on Hijets always peels off, roof and front end first.
