Cavcraft Posted October 23, 2016 Share Posted October 23, 2016 This Fiesta 1.3 (2001, five door) needs to go. MOT Jan 20171.3, petrol manual, five speed.Taxed to get you home M8Seemingly (from MOT history thing) genuine 52,000 milesTwo new tyresStarts first time and runs as well as these things can.Half a tank of fuel if the gauge is correct It currently has a private plate valued within the last week at £400, though we all know these are highly subjective things and only really worth it to someone with the right initials, or whatever. The bodywork isn't quite as good as pictures may show, the wheel arches have the usual Ford-of-that-era rust, one isn't too bad though. The driver's door interior opener 'thing' doesn't work, you have to wind the window down and open it from the outside! The interior mirror is a comedy tiny stick-on one, the locking fuel cap is knackered (the key bit) but was told it can be opened with any key.The 'biggie' is the clutch seems to slip slightly under load ion the higher gears, i.e if you try and gun it in 4th or 5th. I've been using it pretty much daily as it is and it's fine if you drive sensibly. Car and plate together £200, pretty sure you could offload the plate for £300 so you have had the car and a oner for nothing if you do. Car without plate £140, though there'll be some arsing about waiting for V5 so I can plate bum it first. I'm in Chester and in the unlikely event anyone wants it I'll collect you from the station or deliver within 20 miles free of charge probably. eddyramrod and Laseraligningfoofooflanges 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djimbob Posted October 30, 2016 Share Posted October 30, 2016 Indeed, I have purchased this as a stop gap for my daughter whilst I sort out her Pug 207. It is a lot tidier than I thought, and drove very nicely all the way back to Leeds, many thanks Billy, A1 seller would recommend etc and so forth Might even go outside now and throw a bucket of soapy water over it, I'm that pleased KruJoe, eddyramrod, Cavcraft and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
