Leaving the country so has to go soon. I'll be using it this week to clear my house out and have used it for the last couple of months as my daily driver doing around 60 miles a day.
It's been averaging over 43mpg with mixed A and B road driving. Always starts first time and always gets me where I need to go. Starts, stops and drives as it should.
This is an old car, it has battle scars and a few minor faults.... it's cheap though, offers welcome
The good,
Starts and drives well
Service history
Cambelt done about 5k ago this winter
Electric front windows, mirrors and sunroof
2 remote keys
Economic but has enough go to overtake when required.
Pretty good condition inside
Zero rust underneath, this is the most solid 20 year old car I've ever seen
MOT until October
77k
The bad
Engine mounts are worn, I've changed 1 but have the other 2 in the boot, I'll change them if I have time but might not get around to it.
Can sometimes hear a wheel bearing, cheap job to get done.
Drivers side foor only opens from inside, not been an issue for me as it's easy to reach the inside handle by opening the front door.
Occasionally the airbag light comes on, common fault on cars of this era, check the forums for the fix.
The Ugly
It's got some battle scars, worst being the rear passenger door and the front passenger corner has been repaired in the past to a diy standard
Plenty of scratches elsewhere as to be expected at this age, not terrible though.
Wheel trims now removed as they were cracked. Can gome with a set of 5 spoke alloys to fit if you fancy but tyres would want swapping on the alloys.
