Buying surf

[collaboration]

Looking at buying a surf.

What's the main difference between 2.4L and 3.0L diesel surf?

Anything I should look carefully when buying one?

main and only difference is the motor. take 1 of each for a drive and you'll soon see. both engines had issues with heads so look for 1 with head work done.

personally the red inside would make me bath after a night on the drinks

Agree totally id never seen one with a red interior and now i wish i never had a look, thats disgusting but if you like it go ahead

But seriously id go with the 3litre way more power even elstoko get off their ass when needed pretty quick

that red interior is plain scary!

a few years ago i brought a LN130 (GREY INTERIOR VERSION) with a perfectly good motor, sold the motor for just less than i paid for the vehicle and dropped a 2JZGE supra motor into it, surfs are suprisingly stable at 200kph, who would have thought........

As mentioned the heads are main issues with those engines. You can get a super reliable 2.8 surf for around the same price as the 2.4 you're looking at, that would be my first pick.
good luck
