I am selling my second car. Mostly used for work. It needs quite a bit of work and I really can't be bothered to get it back in good shape. Here is a list of known things that need attention Front suspension Either the battery or alternator needs to be looked at Handbrake needs tightening Water pump will need to be replaced soon Other superficial stuff Key scratch across the bonnet (thanks to the ex) Rims will probably need to be refurbished The car still runs. I drive it 2/3 times a week. I have removed 1200 from autotrader's recommended value.
