craigrk bought this to replace his wifeβs new BMW 218 Bland-mobile. She will get to drive his Mercedes Benz ML in stead. So the idea is to modify and make interesting, this car. Keep in mind it is an agricultural tool. The name itself should be inspiring enough. Remember my Berlingo Multispace βPROZACβ that was mainly given a visual NASCAR feel update? So, what ideas do you all have for this one. Pics as bought. Current wheels do not have,centre,caps, came with a full set of original wheels with rotten tyres that need replacing. ADVICE PHOTOSHOPS DONATIONS STICKERS DIESELβ¦β¦. ALL WELCOME. Freebies that came with the purchase. And a knife, spare trailer plate and 20p. So there you have it. Comments, advice, photos of modified Nissan Terranoβs invited. Thanks all.

Wash it when you can't tell what colour it's painted.

Hey guys, Yes, I'm still knocking about, but not finding time to post much. The recent house move has resulted in a seemingly never ending list of projects, none of which are car related. Thanks grizz for starting this thread. Research on these points to the narrow track and relatively high center of gravity, causing some body roll. Already evident in the test drive so not sure I want to take it even higher. We live rurally, but not expecting to need to go-piste. Mileage is relatively low for the age at 95k. One of the first things to resolve is the ripped bolster on the driver's seat. Maybe some reasonable aftermarket covers. Oh, and those aftermarket wheels and mud pluggers will be up for sale as soon as I buy some road tyres for the Nissan wheels.

Sounds like those wheels and off-road or mud biased tyres are for sale. Rich you are the wheel god here. What is the PCD etc on these things, any idea? My contribution is these letters to complete the name Craigs wife gave the carβ¦β¦. TERRANO-SauruS Works for me.

What is the PCD etc on these things, any idea? β Center Bore: 100 mm β PCD: 6x139.7 (6x5.5) Big J 4X4 stud pattern innit. You tagged the wrong Rich BTW. I assume anyway. Out of curiosity, what size are the tyres that will be going up for sale?

Out of curiosity, what size are the tyres that will be going up for sale? I'll have look tomorrow. As (I think) you said earlier, it's just got to do the job. It'll be a school run beast of burden in a rural location, so lots of narrow lanes with tractors, etc coming around blind corners, hence the high seating position being handy. You actually sit higher than in the X3 (yes, X3, Grizz was thinking of the previous 2-series beast of burden) which I found surprising.

Hopefully they will work for making a small garden trailer. You do need two more hubs.

Chatting with Craig earlier on about what next on the Terrano, he said tyres and wheels. But these are parked outside his hotelβ¦β¦. I suspect the are too dead to import unless you are a total massochist

If the locals can't make them run, they probably are really only scrap!
