Description

Runs and drives with MOT till Dec and 2025 SORN&GARAGED mileage will not rise! Plenty of cosmetic damage , lacquer peeling due to 19 years old , electrical faults and a few parts missing. 1 Key / Locking Wheel Nut Mechanically its sound , it's had a few thousand spent on it within the last 4 years including, The Good Alternator/Front wiper motor linkage/Subframe lanoguarded/2 Rear wheel bearings and tires in last 12 months/Cambelt water pump kit in last 12 months. The Bad Minor oil leak advised on MOT, gearbox minor oil leak advised when having subframe lanoguarded -Handbrake housing cracked so handbrake feels insecure however cables were replaced last year -Glovebox handle snapped however have a new glovebox will throw in for free -gear level linkage feels loose and sometimes hard to get into 1st gear I believe this is a plastic part that needs replacing on the gearbox but clutch has no issues , maybe occasionally it makes a grinding noise when going into reverse and will need re attempt. -driver side mirror housing damaged so it's loose and the electric adjuster dosent work , have a replacement whole mirror assembly will throw in for free however the T40 screws are rusted and rounded so I cannot replace it -brake light both sides have constant faults with the cables burning out so replaced plugs multiple times but is a electrical issue I can't solve -ceiling light and volumetric alarm missing due to the cable burning out and blowing the fuse , fuse replaced and cable cut back to good cable and electrical taped off -alarm goes off by itself or when opening when locking with key fob so use the manual key lock method Other than that I cannot think of anymore issues but it's 19 years old and parts are hard to source , it drives as normal daily and will likely have no issue passing the next MOT. The subframe was lanoguarded 2 years ago but was advised it's not got any holes or major rust where it needed replacing , the last mot only raised that it was covered in grease which is the protective coating. I've tried to be as a honest as possible , this car is best used for spare parts or a delivery vehicle? If you need a car for a short time then it's ideal if you're desperate for a car but otherwise given its age and damage/missing parts it's likely going to have further issues. 450 ONO
