Cavcraft Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 Lets all meet up in the.... year 2000 Corsa 1.2SXiMOT 28th MayTaxed to get you homeSurprisingly good runnerSwish being the SXi as has sporty (LOL!) interior, central locking, alloy wheels AND electric mirrors.But no power steering. Go figure, as the sceptics say.Erm, it's in Arden blue BEST COLOUR.Clear rear lights (bring normal ones and a hammer) Dent in boot, rear towing eye cover missing (probably been used to drag Previas!) EML on (was an advisory on last MOT and car runs great) and the speedo doesn't work. I use a free speedo iPhone app thing. My lad said it looks like it's attached but could be the sensor. Fuck knows. Oh, fan comes on all the time with ignition. More pictures to follow. £244, cash on collection from Chester. Surprise, surprise (advertised elsewhere) I have a genuine offer of an iPhone 4 which was then upped to include a f*****g XBOX. And someone else definitely wants it but can't come 'til Saturday or something' and says he'll give me a deposit now by Paypal. But if he doesn't want the car, he wants his deposit refunded. You can probably guess the response. KruJoe, cms206 and EssDeeWon 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cavcraft Posted February 26, 2015 Author Share Posted February 26, 2015 Price it with a black box thing fitted (insurethebox) it'll be shit loads cheaper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

New POD Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 £2,174 That's what they wanted when we added her as a named driver at 17 to a BINI cooper. This would be her own insurance with wife as named driver. Mainly for use in the 20 weeks holidays she seems to have. Got to be cheaper than adding her to BINI again just for the summer.

Station Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 EML light is probably related to the speedo not working, or probably not. Hope that helps. HH-R, EssDeeWon and Cavcraft 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greengartside Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 I've just read up about the non-working speedo. Says to check the fuse for the cig lighter. Apparently this fuse also does something with the speedo? It's fuse 17 (10A) - also check fuse 18 (20A) if they keep blowing when replaced then disconnect cig lighter wiring. Might be something inside the lighter that's shorting the fuse if that all makes sense. Cavcraft 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cavcraft Posted February 28, 2015 Author Share Posted February 28, 2015 Cheers, I'll have a look at that later. The lad who had the lights was cooing over the alloys, so I suggested he could give me his steels plus cash (I didn't mention a price, but £50 will do it) which got me wondering if I swapped other standard bits plus cash for the SXi stuff (like interior) etc, I reckon I wouldn't need to do too much so the car became free!

KruJoe Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 Looks funky fresh now Billster. Those alloys are the best ever seen on a Coarsa, except perhaps for those SRI three spoke jobbies. Cavcraft 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hendry Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 I'm a bit confused as to how/why this doesn't have power steering, my sister had an X plater, but otherwise identical, Arden blue, same wheels the lot and it had PAS. I probably would've been interested if it had it as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RoadworkUK Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 If Billy ever advertises a motor north of £250 I don't reckon the internet will be able to cope and we'll all be subsumed by some HTML black hole.

New POD Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 I went to look at this, and it's pretty much as Billy has described, but I decided that a) my daughter would cry (a lot), that would be 5 cars between 4 people. and c) I haven't really got the time to devote. It could be a really okay car. Set of seat covers, and a service, and it'd be great. I'd say the money he wants is a bit cheap really.
