Buyers please be aware

 

Funny how a new bumper fitted to a zed for sale can enhance it so much prospective buyers forget to look behind it.

 

The photo's show a recently purchased zed ( from a garage ) all splendid with an after market front bumper, however when viewed from beneath on a ramp all was not good.

 

The missing undertrays and damaged other trays was a good indicator that some thing was amiss but when you look at the front offside chassis rail / front member it has taken a substantial impact.

 

The damage is so bad it has deformed the fixings of the tension rod bracket, the area around it is all mishaped and has caused a set forward on that wheel of around 4 mm, does not sound a lot but a tyre shredder if nothing else.

 

Subsequent check so the damage is isolated to that area and is now awaiting removal of the front member a small power pull and a new member welding in, not the end of the would but £500 the new owner could do with out.

 

The said garage have yet failed to respond in any constructive way and to be fair they may well be not the culprits if they px the zed from someone......who knows.
