What’s for sale in the North East?

[overrun]

A workmate needs a new car to replace a knackered Scenic.

 

No real requirements, but the newer the better I guess, and something car sized would do. Up to a grand to spend.

I suggested N/A small petrol engines, as it won’t cover many miles.

 

He’s a nice lad, but doesn’t know much on the subject and asked for my help.

 

Cheers.

Brimmed the tank yesterday (£80 of free petrol), MOT until next April, will deliver for the cost of a train back to Berwick (20-30 quid from most of the north east...)

[yes oui si]

Just saw sunlun.... Presuming that means Sunderland, I'll deliver for free.

WilsonWilson (or whatever he's called at the moment) to the beige courtesy phone... he's bound to be selling whatever he bought five minutes ago...

Scary has a c2 that seems perfectly acceptable as a means of getting from A to B, and I'm sure it'll be cheap

Mike's got a K11 Micra. It's not new-new, but it's new enough.

Cheers for the replies so far, folks.

I’ll pass the suggestions on.

 

TBH I have asked him to acquire a little more info on what is wanted.

His missus does the driving, so hopefully he comes back with a little more detail, tomorrow!

 

So far, I’d say the Citroen May be the kind of thing they could do with.

It does mean Sunderland, aye.

I’ll see what he makes of your Mondeo, mate.

I do indeed have a c2. Reliable enough wee thing, 55 plated and 500 quid with a fresh test.

No problems. Just send me a PM if there's any questions

Nurse ! Dispense a fleet of chod immediately.

From memory, K11 Micra is red, manual, is a 1.3, I think, bodycolour bumpers, grey interior.  I think it's the one that's had at least one front wing replaced with a brand new one because the old one was a bit crusty, and I think it's got a fair bit of MoT on it... Mike's not here to ask right now but I'll ask him tomorrow when I see him and get more details for you.  Or, send a message to MikeKnight on here and he'll likely pick that up before I see him.

I have my partner’s Honda Jazz to sell.

New MOT, 2007 07 plate 1.4 SE in grey with working air con, half-worn matching Michelin Alpin winter tyres all-round. 104k miles. Few scrapes and dings. Very roomy and practical with the ‘magic seats’ and fuel tank under the front seats.

 

She’s had it for 7 years or so and it’s utterly, boringly reliable apart from when the battery died a couple of years ago. Both front wishbones replaces within last two years. Recent new exhaust section (Bosal, I think it was).

Looking for no less than £1000.

They both like the look and sound of this, mate. I just spoke to her on the phone and she said she looked at one a while back.

Any more pics? Text me your contact number? oh77oh894six78eight.

 

I reckon they’d have it this weekend, as they need a car ASAP.

[MikeKnight]

Apologies for not replying sooner. I have the following available. Added the reg numbers so they can check MOT histories if they want to.

 

1L Corsa B reg M623 HPA - £395 - if they just want something cheap and cheerful that's been superbly maintained.

1L Nissan Micra reg X943 EDC - £495 - superb condition, power steering, really nice car to drive.

Vauxhall Meriva - £1500 - interior is like factory new, owned by a nice old lady before me, full tank of diesel, don't have the reg number to hand right now.

[MikeKnight]

Here you go, have some pics.

 

Corsa. Yes I'm aware the window says £495. I dropped the price.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Micra. Only on 41.6k. Lovely.

Don't have any pics of the Meriva to hand but can get some on request.
