Vel Shatis with a years ticket - £650

144,000 miles, so technically 126,000 away from nuking itself (ideal forum bike replacement!?)

2.2 diesel automatic for optimal borkage potential, if the very fact it's a Vel Satis wasn't enough!

I'm sure the "slight noise" won't* be much...

Cheap for the miles..

@Supernaut sent me a link to this yesterday, it seem's a barge pole job to me...

It's been street parked in the industrial estate I work in, for over a week now (In Dyce, not Westhill), photo I took last night at around 11:30PM when heading back from a part collection for work.

The Gumtree photos are even taken from the same street i's parked in. Down from it is a pair of shonky MX5's in true 'Drift Yo Stance' spec, also street parked. 

It also failed it's last MOT initially on rust on the rear as well...

Granted, it was 9 days and 50 miles later it passed, but still an advisory on rear subframe being corroded, but doesn't fill me with confidence.

That is a fantastic car. I believe they were built to a much higher standard than most detroit products. How much cooler than yet another mustang?

WHS. Price seems very reasonable too for what you're getting, I hope it ends up in sympathetic hands.

I dunno, I had the closely related Kia Magentis V6 of similar vintage and that was a surprisingly entertaining thing to drive once you'd got over the complete lack of steering feel.

Ex-BeEP Clio now up on FB Marketplace for double the price, with no mention of the issues - maybe they've been fixed already... 🤔

Typical fake/dummy FB profile too! Always a tell-tale of a private trader. At least a "warranty" is being offered!

Powershift - broken - High Wycombe - £1,800 @grogee : https://www.facebook.com/groups/1243941105620075/posts/5633146213366187/

May be an image of car and outdoors

Tempting but the broken one I bought was £1500 and half the mileage. If it was £800 I might have had a go; there are some* faults that are gearbag out/replacement needed. 

Thanks for thinking of me! I did wonder if there was a living to be made out of fixing them....

"Immaculate" - definitely very much not.  Bumper corners don't fit properly and he's carefully avoided showing the worst of the mismatched paint - but I can see it's still there.

"No issues at all" - except the scrubbed tyres, non-functional heater blower, driver's door dropping slightly when opened, floppy key blade etc...

"£30 tax" - nope, it's £165.

"Warranty" - really!?

On the plus side he turned up when he said he would, paid the agreed amount and disappeared without fuss.  It's the worst car I've had for a while and I lost £20 on it, so I'm not complaining too much.
