Hi there .

I have had a good read here regarding the 3.2 shogun , There is a 04 plate with 54000 miles locale to me and was thinking I might buy it , the only issue seems the fuel pump failing apart from the fuel tank piping is there any other issues that I should look for .
I would fit a marine / plant type fuel filteration unit to assist the fuel pump issue ,

I have had two LC the current one that I use for my business that is a good vehicle , the shogun is very tidy and would be a clean vehicle .
Your points of view would be respected .

You will need to budget for about £2000 minimum to sort the fuel pump and piping.

Just adding a fuel filter won't sort a damaged pump it will need rebuilding.

Have a read of Geodrome's posts HERE as he documented his pump problems in detail.

Thanks for your reply , I have heard this morning that it needs welding so wont be putting in an offer , what year do the engines get away from the fuel pump issues .

Not sure as I have a MkII and never fancied any of the later models.
