Merlin cat Posted November 26, 2017 Share Posted November 26, 2017 I'm finally selling my trusty C15. This is due to my dodgy shoulder deciding power steering is more acceptable to it's well being. I've now bought a Seat Inca. I've used this van as my daily driver for the past 3 years, only had a few probs. Needed new glow plugs.Exhaust broke twice - I'm now an ace at disconnecting it at roadside, chucking offending part on roof rack and driving noisily home.Accelerator bit snapped, however due to Citroen simplicity I was able to attach a boot lace to the linkage and drive to the garage with the other end wrapped round my hand to provide revs All these issues have been sorted. Mileage 101,747 The van starts and goes, I've driven from Sheffield to London and north yorks in motorways with no problems - even managed an overtake! It's got a massive load space, full length roof rack, roof air vent thing and inner liner for rear. I also put window grilles in the back to deter van burglars. Fortunately my additional security of rarely washing it acted as a better deterrent. The bonnet going rusty at the front as per C15's. I actually love this van, think it's fab and am sorry to sell it . I'm hoping someone will buy it who appreciates it's very simplicity and lack of jazzy shiny modern rubbish. Thanks - my tel us O793956O224 Ps comes with genuine Spanish San Cristobal sticker on dash for safety Six-cylinder, Sudsprint and barefoot 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bucketeer Posted November 26, 2017 Share Posted November 26, 2017 Also, alter your phone number by replacing any zeros with the letter '0' or wording some numbers or whatever or else the Russian spam bots will be calling hot and sexy phone lines on your dime, or summat.And +1 for price please, although I'm sort of hoping it's too expensive for me, as megatempt.

Merlin cat Posted November 26, 2017 Author Share Posted November 26, 2017 Thanks for your comments, tel no edited using letters instead of zeros, mileage also added and price to heading. Sheffield 101,747 miles£395 I've also got a rust free, white, second hand bonnet that I bought back from Spain (where these vans are super popular, but didn't bother fitting as I was keeping it until the existing one good too bad. If it's not broken don't change it being the motto I was going by! Thie bonnet I shall sell separately, if required, or just put on auction site. The drivers front door was also a Spanish replacement, the old one was rubbish, that's why it has the Club sticker on rather than the plastic trim.. I feel it adds to the mystique Today after I emptied it I looked under the floor liner to see what it was like as I'd never had it up, or had completely empty van since I bought it. It's got blue carpet on the floor that looked comfy enough to lay on! Also a bit up the side. barefoot and eddyramrod 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Faker Posted November 26, 2017 Share Posted November 26, 2017 I'd still like one of these. One turned up for sale in NI a few weeks ago... £595.. just not enough coppers in the piggy bank due to very recent house purchase... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faker Posted November 26, 2017 Share Posted November 26, 2017 But I still would... I've a brand new set of S2 rallye steels which would fit nicely (see foads for example pic)! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ruffgeezer Posted November 26, 2017 Share Posted November 26, 2017 I think I used to own this one too. I bought it from a dog minder in Warrington who had "upgraded" to a Kangoo. I sold it to buy Mrs Ruff her Berlingo. No spare cash in the kitty just now to own her once again I'm afraid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s got a sticker on the back window about Cheshire dogs so must have been the Warrington connection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Merlin cat Posted November 27, 2017 Author Share Posted November 27, 2017 Yep that was me!Good to see you on here again and glad she has served you well.It's been great. Used as my daily plumbers van since I bought it from you. I'm only selling as lack of power steering as I've got bit dodgy shoulder. Even tho I've now got a relatively shiny (tho 4 yrs older) Seat Inca I've already had 2 customers saying they loved the C15! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
