Description

Near offers considered. Category N This was purely because of the broken passenger wing mirror mentioned below. The insurance company decided to treat this as an economic write off as they cost to use original new parts and labour too high. The wing mirror is fine as is for passing MOT and a new glass can easily be glued on for a working wing mirror. Lovely car drives really well great sound system plenty of oomph. Less than 100k. Automatic. Listed with one issue which needs to be fixed for MOT so although it drives fine it's a Spare or Repair (relatively simple one). The driver window mechanism failed. And the window fell into door. I had started fixing it have removed glass (not broken) and put plastic temp window in but need to get to broken part and reassemble As a result of these issues MOT has expired in Jan 2026 Advisories then were 1) rear door catch deteriorated so doors cannot be readily open or closed 2)2 tyres close to legal limit 3)front exhaust has minor leak Since the last MOT has two other new issues 1) Broken passenger wing mirror. This got hit but luckily not MOT failure if it has 2 other mirrors which it does. 2) Brake issue . I think it may need new pads and or disks. So brakes do need to be looked at This was our family car for 15 years or so. However I recently stopped driving it as wife got a new car and she wanted me to take her old smaller and newer car as my car instead of this one which I reluctantly did. I started fixing the window but run out of time. As no MOT legally would need to be collected on trailer or driven directly to MOT testing centre.
