Sold ZS Winter heap £150 as is. Please read fully.

Despite it passing it's MOT with a couple of notes the damn thing is doing it's best to kill me/itself.

 

Top rad hose split. New old one on way.

 

Now the tractor syndrome has reared it's head. Just after changing oil etc etc. And headlamps. And tail-lamps. And O/s/f window -ish. And both rear door handles (not refitted).

 

So, does anyone fancy it?

 

It wants the pump advance solenoid cleaning/replacing. Well-documented. Door panels in rear refitting. And top hose will be replaced when it arrives.

 

12 months ticket.

Rear trailing arm bushes a bit meh.

Two tyres a bit oval/eggy.

 

It's taking up space that I don't have anymore (lost garage space at work) and it's behind Escort and Oldsmobile.

 

 

Thanks,

Sam

Anyone thinking of buying this, that's worried about the Tractor Syndrome/ Timing Solenoid wanting to be done, it's not that difficult.

 

I had to do one of these for someone a few weeks ago.

 

Here's the thread I printed off and followed to do it.

What Dave said.

 

Yep - it's not. I have lost any interest in it quite frankly. It's taking up an insurance slot on my policy that I need.

 

Carry on.

[Lord Sterling]

It's a very likeable car. Very competent on the motorway. Given the money (which is so cheap, its even probably achievable for a poor sod like me) I'd definitely have it.

Can you put in a link to any previous listing or adverts please

[Lord Sterling]

Just checked the mot history, a reoccurring advisory for the front floors , has anything been done about them ? Whereabouts is it living at the moment?

It’s 150 quid...

[Cavcraft]

...with 12 months MOT.

[sierraman]

£150... what do you want? Complimentary mudflaps and a bunch of flowers on the back seat?

 

Swat some under seal over the floors and it’ll probably outlast the car. Does it run with the problem with the solenoid? Doesn’t look a big job to do anyway.

 

It had an advisory back in 2013 about a tyre so I’m out I’m afraid.

[Jim Bell]

One day we won't believe that you could buy a full car with a full mot for £150.

 

Till then I guess we'll just complain about them.

[Dan_ZTT]

This is in/near Birmingham right?

 

I like the look of it. My wife doesn't, but it's so cheap I might persuade her.

[The Old Bloke Next Door]

An absolute steal at £150, would fetch more on the bridge. If I was running one I'd buy it for spares.

[Cavcraft]

I bet my mate would give £180 for this over the bridge. Don't anyone ever moan there's no cheap cars about if this gets weighed in.

[oldcars]

Lovely looking thing. Hope someone with better skills than me can save it.

[red5]

It's in Stourport on Severn. It'll drive anywhere .

I'm only down the road in Redditch. I definitely want it but need to discuss with lovely wife when she's home later today, we have space & neighbour issues but I could probably keep it at work for a bit to get round that.

 

Obvs not expecting it holding at this price so if someone else jumps in so be it, but I'll try to have a decision today.

[bangernomics]

Add me to the list, out of the country until next weekend but if it can make it to Manchester I’ll take it. I can PayPal gift in advance.

[clayts450]

I really do want one of these as these are the hidden gems in the ZS family.

 

But the timing is all wrong for me, sadly. Hopefully it'll stay in the fold and I can have a go later.

[Matty]

If front floor is a problem just bang 2 sets of mats in. Keeps yer feet dry!

[Rod/b]

But the timing is all wrong

It’s just the fuel pump advance solenoid innit

[djoptix]

Assume this is the 120?

As soon as I wrote that, I realised I was actually being a comic* genius* without even trying. Must have taken all of 5 seconds for you lot to see through my cunning* wordsmithery.

Quite like the sound of these when they do the ‘tractor’ noise.

Even fk**** know the mot ain't worth the paper it used to be printed on and having not seen the car I should of expected some smart arse remarks for merely enquiring whether it is a flintstone floor or just in need of a coat of underseal .

I'm glad I've helped to make your day so much more fulfilled .

Have a nice day now

[sierraman]

I hope you find one of these faultless cars for £150. It’s fielding ridiculous requests like that why I just weigh the fuckers in now instead of advertising them.

[red5]

It's fine. Scabby corners of floorplan. Tbh I'd not even advise on it. However, ones advise is another's quiet word etc. Let's keep it civil.

[red5]

Assume this is the 120?

The 101.

[Isaac Hunt]

I thought this was a cheap set of wheels when it was up for about £250 or something like that

 

At £150 and a few hours on the spanners and a few quid on a valve things with 12 months MOT this must do someone a good turn.

 

Be good to see it live, there have been a few Autoshite bikes that have disappeared off or under the radar of late.

[mitsisigma01]

"ridiculous requests" .... asking if it's got a floor ....
