As a newbie to the forum this is both good and bad news, Bad in the fact that there are some dogs out there but good in the sense that the forum has spotted this.
I can understand the problem with some surveys, they can be a pain and intrusive, especially the tyre kickers and people not understanding these are 30 year olds and will not be perfect at a reasonable price. However, that said, with these dogs around, as a buyer I do want to be sure my hard earned pennies are not going down the toilet. I've had the same, 5.0SC Range Rover, they all want to drive it, but you can tell, no way are they buyers and 15mpg sends them running.
On EBAY there is a white one, LWB TT supposedly in Nottingham, No plate is covered so cannot confirm whether this is the same car doing the rounds, it's a cloth interior so the beige trim comment doesn't lone up.
But, the rear wheels are on backwards so may well be the same car. I can't say either way, but did notice from the pictures the "twin turbo" sticker on the right plenum is missing, so I'll save myself a trip and give that one a miss.
Thanks, Andy

Not off a Z hence why I thought I'd post here.
It's off a 92 peugeot 205 1.8 diesel.
Done some research online and the consensus seems to be that the best way to test a coolant sensor is to measure the resistance with a multimeter.
Video of soime chap doing it here:
From what I can make out, I should be testing the resistance across the two pins on the back of the sensor.
When I took the sensor out the car and did this I got no result, zip. Aha I thought it's bust! Bought a new one but that does the same :blink:
After poking around a bit I found I can get a measurement if I touch one of the pins and the brass casing.
Does this sound right or are both my sensors bust?
When my multimeter leads are not in contact with anything they show the same as the top pic e.g. '1'
