Pug 205 up for grabs near Preston - scrap value.

[costadelglosta]

Hi

 

I've been a lurker here for a while and in my line of work (solicitors) I come across quite a few vehicles which have been locked up in garages for a few years. I have a garaged red 1993 peugeot 205 diesel 3 door to dispose of and have been offered very little for scrap. It has been locked in a garage for over 3 years. I have freed off the seized handbrake and pumped up the tyres. The coolant reservoir was empty so I put some water in and tried to turn it over using a charged battery. It was very sluggish on the starter and I could not get it to start.

 

If you are interested please make an offer, bearing in mind a local yard offered me £50!

 

I'd rather see it put to use for parts or revived than just fragged.

 

I will try and get some pics if anyone is interested?

 

Cheers Ed

 

PS It has the Lucas injection pump, bodywork is straight, has tow bar and a bicycle carrier to attach.

 

I own a 87 Scirocco, 2 x SWB series 2a Landys, 97 C230K Kompressor and Micra K11

Much wantage! When does it have to be collected by?

[retro80sboy]

must admit im a big fan of the 205. Had one last summer for a couple of months and loved it. You can absolutly throw them around, great fun.

3rd dibs please!

Not only am I in "The Hall" but I have space on the driveway.....

 

Actually, I might be interested in the bike carrier if no one else is

Hi

The car is in a garage in Longridge just outside Preston. I have the keys and log book, plus a warranty booklet and original 205 brochure. I am looking for a slight improvement on £50. It is red, the body appears straight and it has denim seats under the covers. Someone please make an offer? Ideally £100 and you can take it. I would have bought it myself but too many projects, I couldn't get it to start, and SWMBO said I would be sleeping in it!

 

Cheers Ed

How quickly do you need it gone Edd ?

[costadelglosta]

Preferably within a week or two or the solicitor in charge will be breathing down my neck.

[costadelglosta]

Plenty more shite to offload in future no doubt. Regrettably I sent a nice k10 micra over the bridge a while back. Ed

[Father Ted]

If storage is an issue I may be able to help for a while whilst one of our shite-ists can pick up from near Preston (Im assuming that Im quite nearby based on the Ed's "handle".)

Im wondering if this might be the occupant of a garage I have been passing for a few years and pondering its contents... Recent activity on the house suggest its being prepped for sale...

Hi

 

The car is in Longridge, I'm down in Altrincham. Keys are in the ignition and the car is ready to move. So am I right in thinking Mr Claim gets first dibs?

Yay!!!

[wackywacerwill]

Loved my 1 litre pez one and had it been a oil burner with a towbar it would still be parked outside. Got to be a GR8 car for someone here.

 

I'm sure AS will lap up car like this Ed, keep them coming.

[hairnet]

Mate.jusst been knocked off his ped so wants a cheap car again

 

If noone has it...........

[Lankytim]

Can I have millionth dibbs? No particular reason other than i'd like a small french diesel to tinker with and trundle to work and back in.

Hi

 

Last chance for this non running diesel PUG before I have to get it taken to the scrappers. Any serious offers please £50 or more and it is yours. Ed

[Lankytim]

PM sent.....

[Father Ted]

What happened to Warren getting this one?

 

Offer of temporary layover at my gaff still stands if moving the car is an issue.

[Lankytim]

Dunno, not sure why it hasn't gone TBH!
