Volksy Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 Hey all, My mate has just had a FTP in his old Focus Diesel, looking like an injector pump fail. so he has about a grand to spend on something else. anyone got anything for sale? He runs his own business, and likes floating around on surf boards of a weekend so needs an estate - or a large hatch. Let me know whats about, based in the north east, but can engage collection mission from elsewhere is required. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clayts450 Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 At the moment the Cruiser is doing nowt - either the under-passenger seat battery has disconnected itself or there's a short/blown fuse somewhere - should be simple fix, happened after the torrential rain earlier this week - I'll be sorting this weekend. Description: very rattly at idle, possibly a crankshaft pulley bearing or similar - doesn't affect anything, just causes embarrassment when at rest in trafficusual suspension issues - sound like a wobbleboard which is usually the Watts link at the rear, TADTS - was an advisoryhas had a lot spent on it over the years by previous owners and the one killer of these CRDs is a fucked clutch - thankfully this was done a few years ago, and is probably the best clutch I've ever had in a carMercedes common rail diesel engine, pretty economical (but not mahoosive MPG)at some point in time it appears to have been remapped as it goes misleadingly fast when you put your foot down (aka 'pulls like a train, bruv, innit')incredibly versatile - I always have the back seats down and there's bags of room up backwill ideally need a proper AGM battery which costs £170 from Tayna, but it runs okay on a cheapie lead-acid as long as you keep driving it most days - only stuffs me when I leave it a couple of weeks, and has a weedy Corsa battery in it or something - solar battery trickle charger recommended (about £15 on Amazon)matt black, and some usual age-related bumps and grindsAldi wheels, tyres all gooduber rare sunroof on thesebookpack with radio code etctiny service history/invoices etccan sometimes be a sod to change gear in as a consequence of incorrect selection, easily done, again TADTSIt's a solid car, probably needs preventative rustproofing at some point in time.

Crispian_J_Hotson Posted December 22, 2018 Share Posted December 22, 2018 I decided to let my Green BM go a few months ago. I still have it and still use it but it's free in exchange for some money. Wingz123 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have got it booked into my local autospark over the holidays howeverI think this looks like the best thing for the OP's requirements. In budget, massive, practically new, not broken. Still slightly tempted by it myself though, might be in touch if my MG fails MOT badly soon... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garethj Posted December 22, 2018 Share Posted December 22, 2018 I have this which is probably worth £850 http://autoshite.com/topic/22556-volvo-v70-diesel-collection-not-in-advance-not-live/ It's just clicked past 190,000 miles but it's had its cambelt done last year and got about 10 months MoT on it. I don't need to sell it but if someone doesn't take it off me I'll probably keep the thing until I die HillmanImp, fatharris and aldo135 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
