Wingz123 Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 I am after a car preferably smallish for ease of storing (I have a garage that was made for cars back when they were all very small) - just after something I can play about with... Nothing too rusty please Don’t have much to spend but am after something like a K10 Micra or something of equivalent size... What have you got...? Thank you, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wingz123 Posted March 6, 2019 Author Share Posted March 6, 2019 Is the £2000 ‘offers invited’ figure some sort of joke? LightBulbFun 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

puntopaul Posted March 7, 2019 Share Posted March 7, 2019 Hi, I have my 1993 Fiat Uno 1.1 which I've yet to start on. An alas it is firmly at the back of the que, in regards to being fixed up just at the minute. As it needs some work for the Mot, and the heater fixing as it only works sometimes when it feels like it!! So I've got a brand new genuine Fiat heater resistor, and a fan for the heater which I had to get from Italy. Also throttle cables stretched a bit, or is sticking. Have a brand new genuine Fiat one though, which I will pass on. For the Mot it needs the rear turrets welding, two front brake hoses and a front subframe. I have 2x brake hoses, rear turret repair panels, and a brand new subframe which has now been powder coated. The tester did say the headlights were incorrectly adjusted, and the cv boot clip insecure. However he said he'd adjusted the lights, and the cv boot looked alright to me so maybe they did that as well. Rear wheel arches, sills and doors are rot free which is amazing!! Interior is good, no rips or tears, electric windows an a Grundig radio. Got a wad of history, receipts and books along with two keys. There was one lady owner from new, until I bought it. I did get a brand new clutch fitted, when I first bought the car as the original was shot!! Not sure how much, but if it's going to a good home I might consider an offer. As it'll probably sit another 12 months if I'm honest which is a shame, car is stored not far off J9 of the M42.

chancer Posted March 22, 2019 Share Posted March 22, 2019 What kinda problem? It died on me all of a sudden after driving faultlessly all morning. The instruments started to flicker and the radio went off. I pulled over to check and it wouldnt start again. Connected jump leads and all was fine again. I put a plug in voltage meter into cig socket and every now and then the voltage reading drops from 13.8 down to about 11.0 so i suspect the alternator is on the road out. Thought it best to let you know since you had shown interest previously Sent from my G3121 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
