What a great forum, looks like everybody is really helpfull, read lots of good stuff!!!!
Ok, so I have decided I really like the Mu, so checking out some sites and cars. What should I look for when I check them out?
I'd like:
1) Turbo Diesel
2) Preferably Manual
3) Used for a lot of road driving, but also hardcore 4WD with the mates
- is there a great difference between the 2.8 and 3.1?
- Have they both got all the good stuff (looking at LSD, not the drug that is)
- Which ones can you take the roof of, the look really great.
Any ideas and suggestion appreciated, and may score a beer if your arround Goulburn / Yass / Canberra!
Thanks again, Ronald
HI and Welcome,
majority of the MU in AUS are Turbo Diesel,
The difference btw the 2.8 and 3.1 isn't too much, I "tested the acceleration" between mine and Muvits (2.8 auto) and mine was infront...
the 3.1 is out of a Jackaroo, and the 2.8 is out of a rodeo
with a few mods you can get them going nice on the road and off, have a look through the modified section and you'll see what people are upto...
As far as inspecting them, I can't really think of anything special to look out for that is not mentioned, just the standard test, eg rust on the bottom of the doors where the joins are, andin the sunroof if its got one.
I think you'll be hard pressed to find a MU with a removable hard top in Aus, (I've never seen one) but with enough money or an angle grinder you can get it done...
Missymu's Mu does look very nice, i'd be having a look at that if i was looking again
