2001 Suzuki Wagon R - Sometimes for sale.

[red5]

I know of a 05 Panda 1.2 - tidy apart from dented tailgate.

 

Mot end Nov iirc. Might even see if vendor will put in it? £200 as is would do it I reckon.

Egg on here is selling his Mondeo.

 

It's broken. 

[Lacquer Peel]

That Mondeo is going to need three new tyres soon judging by the advisories, and brake pipes down the line.

[pandamonium]

Footman James 'don't insure Mondeos' according to the lady on the phone.

Try Direct Line on a normal policy - they are the cheapest for my Mondeos.

[BorniteIdentity]

That white Mondeo looks fucking dreadful. Nothing of the class that smarter MK1s have. I’d be ashamed to be seen in it, and that’s saying something.

As dreadful as they are, this isn’t a bad shout

You’d probably like the 1.8 saloon I’ve got at the minute even less then.

Panda gone

[pandamonium]

Seems to be the story of my life.

 

Had agreed a price and collection time with the seller of this...

But someone pressed the BIN before he had chance to remove it off eBay...

[Cavcraft]

I know of a three door 1.2 Corsa B for £200 with a long MOT. Looks quite tidy, low mileage but has a small crack in the screen I'm told.

[pandamonium]

I do like a Corsa B but trying to get a 5 door where possible. Got my heart set on a Suzuki Wagon R that ends later today, but no doubt I'll miss that too.

I guess if I can drag it out to the end of the month I'll be able to add a couple of quid to my budget...

[Cavcraft]

Here you go, look at this. Everyone's* favourite car with lots of boxes ticked for just £295/submit an offer. As if the fact it's a Vectra C isn't ace enough on it's own, some dickhead will pick you up from the station and drive you there AND it's enjoying a game of WSR..

[pandamonium]

That's a bit of a bargain.

 

"could do with a good clean" + no interior pictures fills me with horror though. I have a bit of a thing about minging interiors, just fucking clean it you dopey cunts.

[sierraman]

£250 then drive it till it seizes up. Don’t spend so much as a penny on it unless it’s absolutely critical. Fuck servicing it or any of that jazz, could last a surprisingly long time.

[purplebargeken]

Vectra's look cool to me nowadays.

[purplebargeken]

panda, get it, bring it over to me and it'll be very clean in a very short time. Serious offer mate.

[Cavcraft]

Yeah, that's a point if it's still taxed and what have you I could probably get it back here and clean it up if wanted.

[pandamonium]

Will wait and see what happens on the Wagon R I'm watching, then check insurance tomorrow. I'd love a Vectra, but I fear my insurance company will shaft me.

[pandamonium]

 

 

Phew, ebay auctions are stressful. 

 

299 quid, 11 months MOT. Sorted. 

 

 

[Cavcraft]

Nice one m8

[pandamonium]

Collection caper tomorrow evening hopefully, if the seller responds. 

[pandamonium]

How long after auction ends and seller has not responded to your message do you start worrying that they don't want to sell it that cheap? Asking for a friend ... 

[Tamworthbay]

Step away from the keyboard Ken..........

They might be away at the moment. Don't fret just yet. I will admit both auctions I've won have resulted in messages straight away though.

[pandamonium]

Phew - contact made. Train tickets booked for tomorrow (as the difference was £32 (£40 today or £8 tomorrow) Will be a 3 hour trip though. Rayleigh to Bury St Edmonds.

[Marm Toastsmith]

Yeah, Wagon R! Nice!

[Jim Bell]

Who was it that sold a 'hot rodded' version of one of these not so long ago on here? That looked pretty nice.

[dollywobbler]

Unrelated, but I saw a kei Wagon R yesterday for the first time. A fair bit smaller!

 

659cc triple with turbo and intercooler. Why did we only get the dull ones?
