1985(C) Hyundai Pony 1200 GL - £625 - P'boro

[xbo11ox]

Mileage: 50,000
Tax: 6 months
MOT: 12 months
Location: Peterborough

This could be your only opportunity to buy one of these funny little cars, I have only ever seen one other anywhere in recent years, and this one is almost certainly the nicest out there having had one elderly owner from new till I got it. It has a 1200cc mitsubishi engine and 4-speed box, it runs like a swiss watch and is good fun to drive, very perky and willing but runs out of steam a bit above 60-odd mph, defo not a car for long motorway cruises. The bodywork is in VGC, no welding ever though I think it may have had a couple of touch-ups in the past, done to a decent standard though. The interior is absolutley mint and the engine bay is super-clean. Its RWD but if you are thinking you'll get some OMG I R TEH DRIFT HERO action out of it, you will struggle, as you only have 50bhp to play with and a box-type steering mechanism. I am asking £625, this price includes a fresh MOT and 6 months tax. Its in Peterbrough but could be collected from Crewe as always. Why am I selling it? Not sure really, just feeling like I have too many cars and not enough money or time.

Two elderly owners then, ha ha ha! Just thought I'd get that out of the way before someone else did.

Shame you're getting rid, I never had the chance to see it for real. Ah well, I can go hassle the new owner I'm sure.

[xbo11ox]

I'm in a funny mood with these cars at the minute, i've defo got to lose a few, but I love em all so what do you do? I hope a kindly new owner will come out of the woodwork to cherish it. If not its no great hassle i suppose, I havent got the bailiffs at the door yet.

Darn it!!! Why do all these quirky cars come up when I have no money!
This is the sort of thing I'm now on the lookout for as the 1 car family idea seems to have dissappeared.

[wuvvum]

Having driven this little beastie I can vouch for it being a total hunny. Shame you have to get rid Mr_B, but I know the feeling - you can't keep 'em all...

[xbo11ox]

Lets give this a thump to the top, no-one fancy driving round slowly in this super rare little tin box? FULL MOT & 6 MONTHS TAX included in the price

[marinanut]

Oh dear, I think I may cause a kerfuffle on the home front over this.......(stress levels rising....). It would fit the fleet perfectly....

[dollywobbler]

You're a pain in the backside Mr B - turns out CCW doesn't have a Hyundai section! This needs to be remedied...

[xbo11ox]

Soz DW, you ought to have been warned, This car breaks ground everywhere it goes! Its literally taking classified ads to a new level

[xbo11ox]

imagine cruising the streets in this little honey, with this quality choon bangin out the 4" door speakers:



Doesnt get any cooler man.

Also you can pretend to be Mr Lee off this news report:

When banker Lee Sung-mok takes his cheap and aging car through the streets of Seoul's financial district, heads turn and fingers point. People can be seen mouthing the words: "It's a Pony."

Or see the advert:

Holy cow that Pooony ad is class! Love the bit at 20 secs with the Hyundai garage sign.

Should be easy enough to bolt in a Starion engine or something more basic from a Celeste or Galant
