red5 Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 1x Proton 1.3 Saloon for your perusal Mot'd till June 2015 Grubby, slightly tatty. Needs a good clean Has clutch that slips under load - pottering about it's ok. Am currently doing 35 odd miles round trip to work and back in it with no bother. Rear lamps were leaking - boot drained and board drying in garage. Jack/wheelbrace freed off (also in garage). Will refit bung into boot before sale. It does want a clutch however. Dentage on n/s/f winf/door - see pics.Rear bumper adrift - see pics. Valve clearances done, oil and filter changed , thermostat changed and coolant flushed.rear drums stripped, cleaned and adjusted. Bearings cleaned and re-greased. It's grubby, but 56k on clock that looks about right. 5 forward gears! Electric clock. Remote release for fuel flap and boot. No PAS, No sunroof, No electric windows, No CDL, No dash dimmer, No headlamp aim adjuster, No... £150 ono - drip feed payments accepted. Deserves more than I can spend time wise on it.
