Cavcraft Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 Yeah, that one, the ex-Dick Dastardly and Dollywobbler Daihatsu Sirion. MOT July 19th 2014Taxed end of May 2015! Recent new tyres.Fucking UBER fun to drive. I've been offered £135 over the bridge for it and there's a right chunk of tax to CASHBACK, plus the wheels, battery and cat must be worth a few quid on their own. Bodywork is rough, sills are quite bad. I've not bothered taking it to my local garage for a quote but I can do if anyone wants to see what it'll cost for the test. £250 (soz, price is firm) can come and drive it away. V5 pending as it's gone off to come back in my name. Chester, Cheshire, can collect from railway station and would consider delivery within reason for fuel, train home, dinner etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dollywobbler Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 I feel duty bound to report that the cat needs replacing for the MOT too. It is an absolute hoot to drive though. I miss that frenetic engine already. And LOOK AT ITS LITTLE FACE! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Angrydicky Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 LG is a Chester registration if I remember rightly, my family had a few LG and MA registered cars when they lived up that way. Just a bit of pointless information for you there! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cavcraft Posted July 2, 2014 Author Share Posted July 2, 2014 Has this been presented for a test and failed then? Not by me it hasn't, but that can be done if someone wants and is happy to pay the MOT fee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dollywobbler Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 I have presented it for an MOT. It failed in sills (inner and outer) and emissions. Everything else was ok though! chaseracer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CortinaDave Posted July 5, 2014 Share Posted July 5, 2014 fire some of that cataclean shit through it. Costs about a tenner and actually has brought emissions down enough to save me having to replace a cat on a few occasions. Used to think it was snake oil, but its good stuff.

It's not going until tomorrow, but I will try and get a picture of it being towed off. I always do anyhow, just in case DVLA decide it's been used in a smash and grab raid or something.

dollywobbler Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 One of my best purchases ever, and it still ended up in a scrapyard! At least it had a lot of fun in its final year. It went all the way down to Nice and back, then up to the very top of Scotland and back. Thanks little Sirion. I look forward to meeting you again in tin form. Hope you get to be a Heinz tin.
