SRi05 Posted November 18, 2018 Share Posted November 18, 2018 The arrival of the Jag means something has to give in regards to my fleet, this is the car that's up for the chop. Currently being used as my daily, drives perfectly. Everything works, even the aircon blows ice cold, ideal for the unseasonable November weather we're having. It's basically the definition of "AN CAR" Get in and drive it anywhere. I bought it from a fellow shiter for £450 around 6 weeks ago and have spent £450 on it fixing things. Naturally it's being sold for a loss. 69,000 and something on the clock, MOT'd to April. It has a brand spanking new set of 4 tyres, the sump which was leaking when I bought it has been replaced and oil changed at the same time, and has had the horrendous damage and attempted repair on the passenger rear door/wheel arch sorted to a reasonable standard, and now looks presentable. Pretty perfect winter hack really. I'll get it properly cleaned and get new photos up, just wanted to get the ball rolling quickly. I'm asking for £300 which I think is reasonable given the money and time I've spent on it. £10 roffle if it goes that way. As ever it's located in Glasgow.

Well, it is, but every shiter needs a boring dependable vehicle on their fleet to facilitate their shite.

SRi05 Posted November 23, 2018 Author Share Posted November 23, 2018 One last bump for this, if no joy I'll just keep it rather than subject myself to Gumtree wankers. Another week of hassle free commuting from it barefoot 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan_ZTT Posted November 23, 2018 Share Posted November 23, 2018 Sorry this hasn't gone, it looks like a decent car. I have my usual excuse of no space for more than one, and Glasgow is far away. A work colleague is looking for 'an car' with towbar so I'll suggest it, but again Scotland-distance may prove an issue. SRi05 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there's any genuine interest I'll see what I can do in terms of getting it a bit further south. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SRi05 Posted December 8, 2018 Author Share Posted December 8, 2018 I've been trying for ages to find a load cover for one of these, unfortunately they cost a fucking fortune on ebay. It worked out cheaper getting some tint applied to the windows, so that was today's job. the desired effect has been achieved, you now can no longer see into the boot. Pretty decent job as well, no bubbling. Since I've managed to sell the Prelude, and this thing keeps providing hassle free service, I think I'm just going to keep hold of it. I've done a fair bit of work making it decent, and it's actually grown on me. No nonsense motoring. I'm going to treat it to a proper clean next week as its filthy leanycan and Jim Bell 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've imposed a ban on myself for the next wee while anyway, I've spent a ridiculous amount on various shite related purchases recently. The wife only knows half of it. Until the next roffle I fancy anyway Twiggy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRi05 Posted December 29, 2018 Author Share Posted December 29, 2018 Right, this thing has developed a couple of faults recently. EML on, code P0141 which is a fault with the oxygen sensor. Having checked the usual places a replacement can be had for £30/£40. The stereo and central locking have packed in, this happened whilst fitting said stereo, I tried changing the fuses which had blown but this didn't fix it, I haven't investigated any further, just haven't had the time. I've agreed to buy Kiltox's Primera GT so rather than spend more £££ I just want rid. With the issues in mind any interest at £300 or a fiver roffle ? Car still drives spot on, would happily drive it anywhere and it's still in daily use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
