As title, I have for sale my long wheelbase 3.2 diesel shogun.
I have owned the shogun for just under a year, fantastic vehicle, go anywhere capability, fantastic family car or a capable workhorse/tow vehicle.
It's ginormous inside with the seats down, though with them up it's rear loadspace is still huge.
The warrior model meant all the toys as standard ( bar sat nav ) so full leather interior, including the 2 extra seats under the rear load area, which gives 7 seats in total should you need to carry more people.
The front 2 seats are fully electric in every direction, and heated also.
The stereo is the standard item , but sound is superb, it has a 10 disc auto changer , factory fitted also.
The 4 wd is switchable , from 2 wheel drive ( rear) to 4 , to 4 high then 4 low with centre diff active.
All the above functions can be changed on the move, and all work correctly first time, unlike a lot which either don't work, or work occasionally.
It also has rear seat heater controls so passengers can choose their own comfort level.
Cruise control is fitted, and functioning.
Tow bar and electrics fitted too, though I have never towed with it.
It is a UK Warrior model, in pearl black, mot till, taxed it for 6 months only last week, (£170 for 6 months ) ,only 79,000 miles.
I bought it with 73,000 miles on it nearly a year ago, the oil and filter were changed by myself then, so don't need doing for a good while yet.
I also fitted new front and rear discs and pads, and also 2 new rear callipers, as they are prone to seizing when a bit tired.
The vehicle is in great condition inside, and very clean throughout, though there are random marks/scratches in the rear load area but nothing nasty.
The outside is also tidy, though definitely not mint.
There are a few scratches here and there, from I guess , people driving too close to hedges on narrow roads etc,chips on running boards from people heels etc, there are no dings or dents on the body at all, other an a small bullseye dent at the very top of the bonnet near the scuttle panel where a stone was flicked up from the car in front.
It has had a bit of paint, driver side rear quarter, and front pass door, all done to a decent standard, and had I not mentioned it, it would have gone unnoticed.
The warrior model normally runs on 18" wheels with huge 285 width tyres on.
I hated the ride of them though , as they banged and slapped over suface imperfections and tramlined like nobodys business.
So, I sourced a full set of 5 genuine mitsi 16" wheels and had them powdered in gunmetal to contrast the black, and because I think they look quite rude, then had a full set of General Grabber AT2 tyres fitted, 265/70/16 and it transformed the ride , and I personally think the big tyre look suits it much better than big rim, low profile tyres.
They are perfectly acceptable road tyres, and one of the best off road options also, and make the shogun pretty much un stoppable in most conditions.
The wheels/tyres cost me just over a £1000 all in , and they have done around 1500 miles and have at least another 30,000 left in them.
I also had the sump guard powdered in the same Gunmetal colour as the wheels, which you can just make out in the first pic, just below the reg plate.
So the first price includes them in the sale , the second price , is with the standard warrior wheels refitted, which have Avon M+S 285 tyres fitted all with about 6mm of tread on them,ough the spare wheel that was fitted to the tailgate has a more obviously worn yoko tyre on , and the rim has a visible flatspot ( no doubt due to the stupidly huge tyres lack of sidewalk height) but would no doubt straighten if need be.
Being honest they could all do with a refurb as the usual micron thick Jap paint has meant they all suffer from corrosion.
The vehicle is absolutely spot on and has never caused me any issues at all, and with the new brakes, the tyres, the tax etc, it is ready to drive with no money to spend at all.
It is comfy, it is huge , it's also reasonably rapid, and hugely torquey, not too bad at all on fuel, ( way better than the disco 3 I had before it)
The reason for sale is that having set my own business up in my home town last august, i now bike to work, and work 6 days a week, so quite literally do not use it .
I don't do more than 80 miles a month in it, whereas previously I was doing 1500 a month!!
So to coin a few cliches , I don't need to sell it, and to be honest I won't be overly bothered if I don't, as having spent day cleaning it for the photos, I did wonder numerous times why am I selling it, it's ace!!
Anyway, price with the Gunmetal wheels and Grabber tyres is £7250.
Alternatively with the original Warrior 18's on it is £6800.
The price is a fair and realistic price, and is what i want , rather than a optimistically high one that has movement "built" into it.
No part ex thanks.
I am just outside York, and can be contacted via pm by any interested party.
Thanks, Nick
