Please read description carefully. This car was working absolutely perfect for a long time. The problem started when I came from work one day parked up perfectly fine and for some it would not start the next day. I tried jumpstarting but did not start. Not sure what is wrong with it. I’m sure for someone who knows about cars, is not a big job. I don’t have the time to get it looked at or contemplated spending too much on a car of this age. It has MOT and the condition both inside and out is very good for year. Tax on it is only £35/ year. The price reflects current condition. I spend a lot of money always to maintain it well. Price negotiable.

hello i brought this car for £1600 and it seemed fine i got the dps filter cleared and drove to cornwall and back it was okay but it has popped up saying the suspension is faulty however it seems okay i think it’s a sensor. but the other problem is it says gearbox faulty i had a mechanic have a quick look he thinks it’s the lever when you change to auto i just never got it fixed as i got a new car. it goes into reverse and neutral fine just struggles with auto it sometimes works straight away other it takes about 10-20 mins. i want at least £500 for the car just needs someone who can fix it and sell it on thank you
