meggersdog Posted July 22, 2012 Posted July 22, 2012 This is Barry the Hyundai Accent 1.3 automatic (bari special edition).I have become a bit of a hero by saving him from certain death at the jaws of the crusher. How he came about, a young lad bought a Mondeo from me (came in the Hyundai) and said Barry was going for scrap and he was going to cash the tax.The lad came from Holbeach and didn't really want his mate to drive the car back with no insurance.We agreed on a scrap value plus the tax which turnedout to be what it would make over the bridge anyway.Barry has a few scratches,a little rust and a small dent on the passenger's front wingThere is no spare wheel, an exhaust blow from either the downpipe or fanimold and the interior smelled of stale piss.After a couple of sessions with Oustand a vacuuming the seats are like this I'm currently enjoying the one leggedness of a small engined car and raucous exhaust blow knowing that for Halfords pushbike money I can get from A to Bquicker than a pushbike and without getting wet.
Parky Posted July 22, 2012 Posted July 22, 2012 thats class, exactly how it should be! what was the total damage cash-wise if you dont mind me asking?
meggersdog Posted July 22, 2012 Author Posted July 22, 2012 Including almost a quarter of a tank of fuel £120.00. Not bad at all.
ashmicro Posted July 22, 2012 Posted July 22, 2012 WINNAR! That looks pretty decent, even more so when it was just over a ton.
Cavcraft Posted July 22, 2012 Posted July 22, 2012 103.7% 'CAN'T GO WRONG' MONEY.Incidentally if you stick a rubber ended (ooh err) broom handle or similar into the gap twit inner and outer wing you can actually make the dent look worse. Just thought you needed to know that. As you were....
cms206 Posted July 22, 2012 Posted July 22, 2012 I had a P-reg 1.3Si 'Coupe' in white with moss and it was utterly fucking miserable. Well bought!
pandamonium Posted July 22, 2012 Posted July 22, 2012 Well I like it. Was considering one of these as daily transport before I found the Sunny.
