Christine Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 Rather reluctantly ,my missus adores it , (due to its astonishingly frugal fuel consumption, I kid you not ! ), the blue Baleno has to go .I've got the FREE Honda HRV for her now . Bought on here about a month ago , http://autoshite.com/topic/20559-low-mileage-elderly-one-lady-owner-baleno-now-sold/?hl=baleno,she's clocked another 1100 miles, no issues at all . Clutch or gearbox still whining, but drives faultlessly , just as Vince said . I've done nothing to it i'm afraid, not even washed it . . One owner from new , & me .. Masses of history ,mot's, handbook etc ,leccy windas ,leccy mirrors, central locking ,good tyres ,spoiler cup holder ,good radio. blah blah . Again , NOW £200! now sorn. 10 quid of petrol.. Mot is due February i think eddyramrod, Vince70 and Sloth in a bowl 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tetleysmooth Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 Trying to get my daughter interested in this and failing so far. Does it have power steering? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christine Posted June 25, 2015 Author Share Posted June 25, 2015 Power steering included. Swap for anything interesting too (but not another car ..got 4 already )Moped , tools , Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vince70 Posted June 26, 2015 Share Posted June 26, 2015 It's a really nice car. . I really hope it remains an autoshite regular...it's typical old School Japanese with it being so reliable.. And is a lovely nice light car to drive.. I wish the mini that replaced it was half as good Lesley has really noticed the difference in petrol consumption since getting the mini as the old Baleno runs on air..

Vince70 Posted June 29, 2015 Share Posted June 29, 2015 I've just had a word with a friend of mine who needs a cheap car for her son to learn to drive in..If the insurance quotes come in ok for her she would love the Baleno. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christine Posted July 14, 2015 Author Share Posted July 14, 2015 Yes it's a lovely little car !If i had more space i'd keep it too ! I'll raffle it if someone else does it for me .I cant read or write ,and terrible at maths and numbers . I beat hot iron for a living... Since it'll likely go Northwards ,where poorer people than me live , what happens at Dartford Crossing? It's v5 is in my name and i haven't an account or whatever the fuckers want ..

castros_bro Posted July 15, 2015 Share Posted July 15, 2015 I'll offer ya a moped for that fine peice of badly named motorised item in blue. More information when I wake up with a lower beer:blood ratio. Now with wokingupness. Here's a picture of the fine* Atala Califfone I offer - carefully posed with a grand vista of Foreignland but curently travelling (slowly) in the back of a 106 diesel in Surrey. The pilot's foot rests are the wrong ones but the previous owner (anonymouse PBK) was looking for the proper ones. PS. this is a serious offer, UltraWomble 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

purplebargeken Posted July 15, 2015 Share Posted July 15, 2015 The bloody footrests never turned up, was rather annoyed as the fairing/headlight went missing too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stripped fred Posted July 15, 2015 Share Posted July 15, 2015 That Baleno looks nice. I doubt motoring comes much cheaper especially for such a well looked after car with MOT and jap reliability. I'm surprised it's not been snapped up yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jazoli Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 I'll come and get you !!! It isn't a shite car. From the Lake District? I doubt it I don't mean the car is shite as such, its looks great and would do me for the 10 mile trip to Windermere down the country lanes, but its south of that London village eddyramrod 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
