Description
Selling my beloved 407 (SE) Coupe in Metallic Blue, owned since Jan '21 & has been a great servant getting in & out of London.
Mechanically runs great. Engine bay is clean & the Bosch S4 battery starts perfect every time, engine never skipping a beat. Haven't encountered any mechanical issues , other than a new clutch fitted about 2022/23 which now works perfectly. MOT is good until June '25, but will be MOT'ed again (with a '26 expiry) early Apr '25.
Interior is very clean & car drives sweetly with a clean gearbox, transmission & suspension. V. fast acc. from the 2.2L petrol engine but fuel consumption is v. reasonable (around 30 mpg on the m'way, closer to 40 mpg in town). Service history is limited, but I've retained all MOT certs since owning.
The exterior is generally ok, but some issues the new buyer needs to be aware of: the vehicle was rear-ended (by a Third Party) at very low speed ( 5mph) around '22, which caused slight damage to the rear, right-side of the bumper (see photos) hence the "Cat C" classification, which my Insurer deemed "not economically viable to repair" so the claim was settled with the Third Party's Insurer & I didn't get round to filling & re-painting the bumper in the end (although this has had no bearing on the mech. perf., which has been perfect ever since), the bumper itself sits perfectly, just a few cosmetic marks remaining.
Also; a few scrapes, scratches (doors & boot lid) & some paint bubbling, including the bottom corner of the left wing mirror (all of which I've tried to photo as much as poss.). There is also a v. slight dent to the right-side, rear wheel arch, caused by a passing lorry when the car was parked on-street. Finally, there is a noticeable crack in the top, right-side of the windscreen which has been there since around '15 (from the previous owner), but has no effect on the performance, nor on passing any MOTs. My Insurer was planned to replace it but this became another job I didn't get round to completing, but could easily be arranged with another Insurer).
All documents are in my possession including the V5C, one single key & the original remote locking fob (which does not function & will need a new key housing and re-program with the chip inside this fob to function again).
