For Sale, push bikes, alloys, tyres

[New POD]

The New POD is having a Barn/shed/loft/garage/patio clearance.

 

Found in the "Barn" over the weekend :

 

1 set of 14 inch alloys off a Vauxhall. Tyres proper fucked. Alloys presentable with a touch of patina.

.

Would possibly look good on any NOVA, astra, cavalier, corsa.  

 

Have centre caps, and somewhere I think I have some locking wheel-nuts.

 

£40

 

Can deliver anywhere from L37 to DE23 as long as you are not too far off the M57, M62, M6, A500, or A50.

 

Otherwise collection.

 

 

 

[New POD]

Next up a bike.  This one is FREE. The front wheel is buckled, the rear brake wants attention, and the rest needs reassembling. Tyres are good. Similar delivery offered. 

[New POD]

Teenage Boys Mountain bike. Had a lot of use. Will need a new saddle. Used by my lad from age 9 to 21. (although he looked somewhat stupid on it after he was about 16)

£20

[New POD]

Similar sized Girls suspension bike. HARDLY used. Probably no more than 10 MILES in 10 years.

Has hung in a damp shed, so some surface rust on chrome bits. The odd scratch from being in the shed.

£40.

Mechanically as new.

 

[New POD]

Ladies Mountain Bike Circa 1990 ? ish. Purchased in 2001 secondhand, as new, for £45 and used for about 6 months to go 1 mile to work and back.

Not used since 2002.

Some rust, some patina, mechanically not bad.

£30

[New POD]

Now some Part worn tyres.

 

Because I can't stand having different brands on one axle.

 

Michelin 205/55/16 about 5 mm of tread left.  £10.

 

 

 

Some weird Brand I've never heard off but they were quite good  FCCELERA ? 205/50/16 about 7 mm of tread left £10.

Other things I still need to take photos off are

 

101 Pokémon Cards

A Drum Kit

Lots of PlayStation 2 games.

 

I will take photos and list them at the weekend.

The tyres are Accelera - the font they use is shit but the hoops are far from the worst in the world.

 

GLWS but I don't want any of it.

Me neither.

 

As well as cash I will also consider swaps.  I'm not sure I need anything this week, but try me.

You need some 14" tyres for your Vauxhall wheels,

Don't go to loads of effort - this lot sounds better suited to some sort of facebook marketplace sale, freecycle, or even the tip TBH.

[Jim Bell]

Give Bollixs neighbour the drum kit for his cheek.

[garbaldy]

Or better still stick them in the for sale or wanted thread.

My son is obsessed with Pokemon cards at the moment.

 

He might swap you a T reg Renault Laguna for them if you get a picture up

205/55/16 came off a Honda Accord and the 205/50/16 came off the Astra.

 

 

Not sure what size his Omega is but mine seems to have 17's

250 what ? Buttons? 250 Bottles of wine you robbed from the off licence.  250 grams of coke? 250 pokemon cards ? Or are we talking real money ? Great British Pounds ? 

Lets think.

 

I sold it 21 hours after advertising it for £750 cash in my hand.

Liam is me. Nice reply!

Lets think. 

The tyres cost £250. A new coil pack cost me £210. New Brakes cost me £80. 

It's done 54,000 miles in 11 years and has a full history and has no rust. The interior is perfect. It has 12 months MOT. 

I'll tell you what if you come over now and inspect it and can find any faults, I'll knock £25 off per fault.

Most likely you'll find 2 scratches. I'll throw in a paint stick from GM. 

 

No wait. Don't come at all Liam. You'll waste your time as (amazingly) I sold it 21 hours after advertising it for £750 cash in my hand.

The FREE bike has gone, to a bloke who came on the train from South Liverpool.

I'm not sure I'm cut out for selling on ebay.

This is the closest to customer service I can give.

 

 

Q:  Hi I'm looking alloys for my girlfriends corsa it's on a 52 plate and on 14" tyres,will these will fit ?? And would you deliver?? 08-Nov-16 A:  They would definitely fit any front wheel drive Vauxhall with 14 inch alloys if they are 4 stud. You will need to swap the tyres over, as these are not good. One might be good enough for a spare but I would just bin them personally. As for delivery. I live in Liverpool, but work in Derby, and you are where ? Lincoln ? Google maps tells me you are 140 miles from L37 and 7 hours return trip. but only 60 miles from Derby, and that the return trip would be 2.5 hours from Derby. I don't really have time to do either of those trips that as I'm having to work 12 hour days in Derby, but am happy for you to collect and pay cash in Derby one evening after work if you win the auction or click buy it now.

FYI the " a potential buyer" "x00" emails are auto generated by gumtree when someone uses the "make an offer" button - this isn't made clear by them and it's frankly a bit shit
