sporty-shite Posted June 30, 2014 Posted June 30, 2014 Fatha_Sporty seems to have killed his auto Micra. As a stop gap, I managed to locate a tidy Saxo which my next door neighbour was going to PX. However, Mutha_Sporty can only drive an auto, and is thus feeling left out! So, I need to locate a small to medium automatic. Preferably with a decent spec, although that's not too important. Size is the issue, as mum won't drive anything big. So, anyone got, or know about, anything. Also, fairly Northern would be an advantage.
Jim Bell Posted June 30, 2014 Posted June 30, 2014 Sir, I think I have the ideal* car for your needs. It is both automatic, and northern. If you just edit your original post to remove the word Cheap, and replace it will Powerfull, we might be a perfect match.

It really sounds like it would totally not fit the bill, but I can't resist asking. What is it?
sporty-shite Posted June 30, 2014 Author Posted June 30, 2014 It's nice, that, Bazza PissBeanz. However, Uncle Sporty has one, and Fatha Sporty doesn't get on with him, so that would probably mean a no. (/family dynamics) Out of interest, how much is it? And would you PX Saxo/Rusty 944/K10 Micra? (/desperation)
anonymous user Posted June 30, 2014 Posted June 30, 2014 Well it's small and a bit posh, suspect it fails on cheaphttp://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Mitsuoka-Viewt-Baby-MK2-Jag-based-on-Nissan-Micra-K11-/251455452685?pt=Automobiles_UK&hash=item3a8be9b60d Junkman, michael1703, Wilko220 and 1 other 4

purplebargeken Posted June 30, 2014 Posted June 30, 2014 Tis more usual for the 3 door version to have crappy sills. Looks ok otherwise.
Hairy Bob Posted June 30, 2014 Posted June 30, 2014 There is a garage near me that believes that their Micra/Jaguar Hybrid is worth £6k, so £2.5k looks cheap.http://www.glcautos.co.uk/used/NISSAN/FIGARO-MITSUOKA-VIEWT/AETV65027826#!prettyPhoto[gallery]/0/ It is Biege, not sure why it looks pink in the pictures.

sporty-shite Posted July 2, 2014 Author Posted July 2, 2014 Well, it looks like he hasn't killed the Micra, but now Mutha_Sporty refuses to go in it!! So, still on the lookout for something. Will also have a Saxo and K10 Micra up for sale soon.
vulgalour Posted July 2, 2014 Posted July 2, 2014 small/medium - checkbit posh - check (it has shiny bits)automatic - checkNorth - check (it's north of Eastbourne/Spain) Problem solved. It's only done 40k too so it's practically brand new. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Austin-Allegro-Automatic-Only-40-000-Miles-From-New-FULL-History-Mint-Classic-/271341362927?pt=Automobiles_UK&hash=item3f2d349eef Lord Sterling and CortinaDave 2
sporty-shite Posted July 2, 2014 Author Posted July 2, 2014 Angyl, there's more chance of me growing a second cock than Fatha_Sporty driving an All-Aggro. Good suggestion, though.
overrun Posted July 2, 2014 Posted July 2, 2014 Maybe* I can help* I am selling a 2002 Smart Coupe for £995 Or, my dad is wanting a change and has his 2003 Merc S320CDI for sale for around £3000 The second one is a lot of car. The first, not so much.

KEWL It's black, so clearly a blokes smart. Panormanic roof, too. /sales pitch Shame he is after an auto. My dad is also wanting to sell his 2010 '59' Clio 1.5 dci for about £3.5KHighly unsuitable and getting smaller/more expensive. If you require any further useful* offers, you know where I am.
beko1987 Posted July 2, 2014 Posted July 2, 2014 I'll book a day off work and detail the XM to look like new if it helps? Ticks 3 out of 4 boxes...
vulgalour Posted July 3, 2014 Posted July 3, 2014 "Size is the issue, as mum won't drive anything big." Well from the North, anything in Thame, Oxon is going to look small, even an XM. I think we've found the solution. beko1987 and sporty-shite 2
sporty-shite Posted July 4, 2014 Author Posted July 4, 2014 Surely a Metro Vanden Plas ticks ALL of these boxes?Have you got one? I reckon ma and pa wpuld be on that!
sporty-shite Posted July 10, 2014 Author Posted July 10, 2014 Righty. The Micra has failed MOT. I've driven it, and there was nothing amiss mechanically, so they were going to keep on with it. However, it has failed test on a couple of bits, and they don't want to be bothered. A for sale thread for this will appear shortly. So, search has resumed. Has to be auto, small=good, medium=doable, any bigger=post pics and I'll show to mum, but probably not. Preferably sub £1000, although something special MAY be considered if it's a bit dearer. Location? Wherever. Preferably northern, but I'm due a road trip, so distance isn't really a big problem. HIT ME UP, SHITERS.

gadgetgricey Posted July 11, 2014 Posted July 11, 2014 Any interest in a P reg Polo 1.4 CL Auto. Bit crusty round the rear arches, but mechanically A1.(did have a scare a few months back that the H/G was on the way out due to a bit of Mayo in the filler cap. - However was just a breather pipe and an Italian tune up cleared the Mayo ) 73,000 miles, 3 door, Green, Probably a bit old for what you need, but a very reliable old bus. (also has the BEST heater I have ever had in a car) Cheers - Dave -
Sloth in a bowl Posted July 11, 2014 Posted July 11, 2014 Merc A class, there's a tidy looking 1.6 auto with 74000 on gumtree for 895
DVee8 Posted July 11, 2014 Posted July 11, 2014 How about another Micra autohttp://autoshite.com/topic/17452-nissan-micra-auto-10-for-sale-perhaps-shortly/
sporty-shite Posted July 11, 2014 Author Posted July 11, 2014 Dave gadget! Any more details on the Polo? Sloth, not sure they'd go for an A. DeeV8 I've seen the Micra and expressed interest, but would like a price to go on.
