not a bad buy, i wouldnt of thought many would bid, you could probably get for £500, save another going to scrappy.

C'mon, that's got to be worth a flier... shame about the wheels but that's easily fixed.

MOT'd in 2014 with long list of lights not working, engine misfire, brake disc pitted badly , tyre scrubbing . Then it passed at another garage 7 miles later with no advisories . was the work done or just sent to an easier mot centre ! Has had a respray tho, owned by a motor parts employee chap so maybe work was done ?

I like this quote from his ad......The car needs some work doing on the brakes. I believe it's something to do with the calipers as the actual pads and discs look new. When you apply the brake you have to be quite firm and if you're not used to it it could be quite hair raising but the car does stop, it just needs to be a lot more responsive.

Would be a fun drive home ! Wonder if they just need bleeding properly ?

All the time and effort goes into mine , it's never passed mot in 4 years and I've had advisories on every one , it's getting tougher and tougher to get them through year by year frown
