panhard65 Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 Come down to somerset and drive away a lovely mk1 espace quadra. It is shite but drives ok. I can even pick you up from the nearest station and take you back again when you decide it really is too rough. I will let it go for 375 mot and tax til at least march. There is even petrol in it at the moment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cavcraft Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 Citroen ZX TD 306TD. Chester, one and a half miles mile from railway station, one mile from motorway. What time are you coming? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HillmanImp Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 Aldi Coupe? Will let it go for £250 sans MOT or £400 with MOT as it needs a wheel bearing and some brake pads. Has 2 brand new tyres and recent cambelt though. Slight scratch on a wheel arch where I crashed it into my house for Volksy's amusement. Car in Leeds/Bradford area.

Station Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 My Justy - TBH, someone came down on Christmas Eve to buy on an agreed £550. He liked it and started haggling even though we agreed £550. He was going to take it away there and then, but not for the amount I wanted. I would now sell for £400 as I'm sick of the sight of it. It's also had about 10 'I'd like that, take photos of every single angle of the car, in every lighting condition, 20MP format, and then write a song about the car' and then they disappear. Nice car - but would like it to go to someone who would use/look after it/change that f+cking carb. Hopefully people will want once we get a week of snow.

Jim Bell Posted December 27, 2013 Author Share Posted December 27, 2013 ^Though that is an awesome little car, I am a poor turn at "carbs", and fear it would just get parked up to dissolve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Station Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 Jesus Christ I don't know. I put a new carb on it, and it ran fine - then the next day it didn't. I took it off and put the old one on and it runs OK, but I have completely given up now and I'm putting it into the local duffer garage to fix when it opens.I've stopped editing my RR advert saying 'it's fixed' and then having to say it isn't ffs.

overrun Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 I have £400. What have you got. And where are you. One vote for saving more money and buying a car for about £1000, instead of spunking £600 on a £400 car. Maybe I am boring? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say buy two cars for £200 each, budget is still intact but you've got twice the chance of reaching your destination on any given day. rml2345 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

overrun Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 LOL DIDN'T READ That's the gamble with unknown and potentially laid up cars, innit. I have known a few people with petrol variants, GTi's etc and none have had an easy life.Good servicing goes hand in hand with a good kicking, imo. Shame not all owners follow this method.

cort16 Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 I think hermanimps Audi is a barg for 400 even though he crashed it into his house. The 2.6 is thirsty but it's as tough as a camels tit and they're nice cars to drive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
