Sold Daewoo Lanos. SELT

[sierraman]

Put another caliper on, its half hour job.

[Jim Bell]

One is one the way. What good fortune that a refurbished 1.6 Correct one would ne for sale on ebay just when I needed it.

Think Ill treat it to disks and pads while Im on.

[wuvvum]

Well in the tradition of cars that I try to save, then standing on my balls, all of this:

Why was Billy's dog in your exhaust pipe?

I'm sure I've the original Daewoo brochures somewhere.

 

A 2.0 8v would be a laugh dropped in a Nexia.

 

Was that the Mk2 Astra shaped one?

 

If so I knew one once that got used to reshell a crashed Redtop Astray GTE with several bits of tweakage, most amusing as they'd left it looking like a giffer mobile.

[wuvvum]

There was a Lanos on eBay a while back which had had an Astra GSI engine dropped in.  Looked like it could have been a giggle.

I think I already know the answer, but how much clunge are you now fighting off on a hourly basis?

[Jim Bell]

0%

[Snipes]

V6 Espero anyone?

Fending it off with a shitty stick I bet.

[Jim Bell]

Well fuck me if this little car hasnt decided to cheer itself up a bit.

 

 

 

Just had it out for a run. No banging, no pulling to the left, coasting a lot better. Put a palm on the wheels after a run and the passenger front is still warmer than the rest, but not hot like it was last time I drove it. Maybe its decided to meet me half way. Caliper and discs/pads are on the way so should be in fine enough fettle soon.

[Felly Magic]

It's shitting it's self as it knows that it will be up for sale soon (or roffled)

[Jim Bell]

Been kind to this car again today, as its been providing sterling service. New wipers and some GENUINE screenwash. I hate people that just tip water in.

 

 

 

 

 

Old:

 

 

 

Better.

 

[dollywobbler]

You fitted new aeroblades? You animal.

[loserone]

That's not Daewoo branded screenwash

[Jim Bell]

With the MYSTERY ROFFLE action incoming, I need to clear the decks. I thought I'd see if theres any interest in the Lanos before Gumtree.

 

 

1999/2000 Daewoo Lanos 1.6.

72k miles.

MOT November 2018.

 

3 door with rear pop out windows.

Electric Mirror.

Electric Windows.

PAS.

ABS.

Central Locking.

Alloy wheels.

Air Con but it doesnt work.

Sony stereo but its a but of a psychopath. Boot changer with no cartridge that proably doesnt work.

Viarable intermittent wiper.

Two keys!

 

Comes with new discs/pads and a reconditioned passenger front calliper from Big Red.

The calliper on that wheel has eased right up with use and barely even drags any more. Guess its still worth changing if youre doing the discs and pads but its no impedance to use, car coasts fine, brakes work fine.

 

Located North East England NE34.

 

£250.

[purplebargeken]

Fuck. You are worse than I am.

 

Not as bad as Billy though, although getting close.

[Jim Bell]

As an added bonus, any buyer can gather ANY TWENTY FIVE items from the TOOL BUCKETS OF DESIRE, and take home this handy pocket sized LED torch (rubberised finish)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

[Jim Bell]

Bonus gratuitous caliper shot.

 

[Cavcraft]

Can we have a raffle on how many half days you'll own a car for?

But what about the slippers?

[Kiltox]

INSURANCE COMPANIES HATE HIM! Find out how he gets policies cancelled for taking the piss with ONE SIMPLE TRICK!

 

(Seriously, are they not doing the whole “we think you’re a trader because you keep changing car” thing?)

[Jim Bell]

But what about the slippers?

 

I'm sorry but they're not for sale.

[Lacquer Peel]

That's not Daewoo branded screenwash

It looks the same as the stuff I bought at Home Bargains, it's quite smelly.

[Jim Bell]

 

(Seriously, are they not doing the whole “we think you’re a trader because you keep changing car” thing?)

 

No insurance company has ever said anything like that to me man. But quotes for policies are sometimes oddly sky high.

 

Deffo going for a trade policy at the end of my current single car one though.

Home Bargains is quite smelly in South Shields too.

[Kiltox]

Admiral got a shitty on with me when I changed a few times in quick succession

 

.....granted I was trading

[Isaac Hunt]

Knowing someone who is after one of the Government's favourite fuelled machines, oooops, u turn, Demon Dirty Diesel, I had to check the engine options on these, all Pez.

 

I then noticed that they were market as the Doninvest Assol in a certain country......

 

Don'tInvest Asshole.........spend your money more wiseley on a Roffle
