Dirty deeds done dirt cheap.

Sorry another bangernomics modern shit box. Paid for today collection weekend or something.



Not too bad so far? Let's try a bit harder...



Try again?



It's much MUCH worse inside than it looks, absolutely minging and not only was it used on a farm, but the boot still contains about 84 metric tonnes of cow feed nugget things. Oh, two tyres have non-existent tread.

Year of car?

2006

At least you've got the handbook!

 

I hate those cars, we had a 'good' low mileage one Mrs Hooli had from new. It was a piece of shit & much worse to drive than my goona.

My sister has one and I love it, it's nearly as quick as a hire car (and everyone knows hire cars are the fastest in the world).

like the sign on the van

Was that rejected by The Shadows quality control department???

If its petrol make damn sure the heater pipe across the front of the head is secure in that shitty excuse for a clip on the top of the manifold. Ours slipped loose & sliced a tiny hole in it on the fan shroud. Mix that with the bloody stupid ECU controlled temp gauge that stays at half until it suddenly rises to boil & you get OMGHGF! at 20k on a car with FSH from Ford.

Oh & by then the CD player didn't work & driving it for more than 20mins made me limp as the pedals are so far left it'd bugger my knee up.

 

ETA: We've now got a VW Caddy & as an unlined van it's quieter on a motorway than that bloody festa.

Have you checked it for Rats yet?

[sierraman]

Looking forward to seeing the clean up on that!!

 

Still you'd be surprised how much better it'll look when it's had a few hours and some trade quality upholstery cleaner on it!

I went to look at a 1.4TDCi one of these in Eggsmurf a couple of months ago, on a 54 plate. Less than 100k miles, and comprehensively fucked in every imaginable way. It made this one look like a minter.

[omegod]

Equilibrium is restored, that C3 was way too clean 

[Split_Pin]

Is this worse than *that* Focus you had?

[Cavcraft]

The interior is the worst I've ever had, even more so (for varying reasons) than a Scenic which had what appeared to be child faeces on the back floor.

[greengartside]

Ooo I do like that! Where do you find all these 'gems', Billeh!?

 

The interior is minging but some love with a wet vac will sort that out. Not a shabby M.o.T history either from a quick look online.

[Brodders]

On a slightly different note, have you had any reactions from people over the distinguished* company name on the side of the van?

[Pillock]

My skin is crawling looking at that interior shot.

 

I'll give you a fiver if you sniff that stain on the driver's seat.

[somewhatfoolish]

Jings, that reminds me of getting lifts to the pub from a local farmer years ago; he used his old dear's shopping trolley, which was whatever the local garage had for cheap, but it also doubled as the farm hack so you had to fight for space on the back seat with bags of feed, fertiliser, bales of hay and on more than one memorable occasion a dead sheep. Seats and carpets were invariably caked with mud and shit. Cheaper than a taxi though, so more beer!

Nevermind the interior, can we talk about how the mirror has a lighter incorporated in it's engineering*. Honestly I'd buy this to turn around and flip.

[dome]

Is it a petrol? Get it stripped out, burn the interior (please) and bring it to Knockhill on the 12th...

[hairnet]

mirrors only 15 complete inc glass off ebay

Yea, that'll sort it...

[xkjagnz]

Living up to its Fester nickname then!

[Noel Tidybeard]

i really* like* changing the seat tilt cables on these

[rml2345]

You'd need to park that in a vat of bleach for six months before I went anywhere near it.

Does it have any redeeming qualities?

[I_am_Diesel]

LOLZ at the sign writing on the van, made my morning already that has.

[LabRat]

That is truly one of the grimmest things I've seen all year. Well done!

 

That interior is a microbiologist's paradise, did you drive it away wearing a full hazmat suit?

Erm, the spare tyre is brand new. But even that's the wrong size.
