i owned this car a few years back, it was my daily runner for about a year till i sold it to friend who used it as a run about when he was in the country which was about once a fortnight for a day or 2.

The car has just sailed through the MOT, NO advisories.
at the last MOT the following was done
new wishbone bushes, new rear top mounts, rear subframe bushes. PAS leak was delt with as well. i think we put on a re con pump.
i have also just fitted a new prop UJ and centre bearing as it was on its way out

when i owned it, i delt with a common with these engines, which is a perished fuel line inder the inlet manifold. at the same time i changed the intake boot replaced all the gaskets and coolant temp swith. also, about 5000 miles ago, the cam belt, tensioners and water pumo was done.
its a 19 year old car, but for what it is, it drives well. stops starts goes in a straight line. no over heating, no oil usage or leaks , doesnt use water either.

it has few dents, and couple of scrapes but polished up well enough. NO rust in the usual suspect places
. bonnet has had some laquer lift from the middle of it, i'm trying to source another in the same colour

interior is very clean, and has lots of loading space.

the only other thing worth noting is the cam is a bit noisy. doesnt affect it really at all. its an auto and you wont be hammering it around. sits at 80mph on the motorway still returning over 30mpg

as daily runner or a stop gap between cars its ideal. i'd keep it but i ahve few too many cars lying around so this has to go

142,000 miles, some history to go along with what i've said i've had done. PAS E/W E/SR E/M

i'm asking £400 pm or call on 07983 484 104
