1 owner, diesel, 3 door and 60k miles!

NCT till November, tax till March. Much too expensive at €900 but what a gem. Needs to be at 5ish, which I'd wager the dealer would take..

It’s bizzare that they are retailing that.

NCT disc folded over to hide mileage maybe? Eyes wide open on this one, they’ve gone quite rare at this money.

Ex taxi I would say.....


Look at them front doors

Was looking for one before I bought my e11 in December, anything under two grand was pretty much in bits

I’d say the cert is folded to hide the reg

My first ever link, a car that will run forever for under a grand but not for the cosmetically conscious.

NCT until the end of next month with less than 100 miles since last NCT.

You could tell us more about it instead of just posting a blind link to something we might have no interest in...

:pac:

Absolutely.

Not up to your standards?

I’d buy that just to polish it.

What a satisfying challenge especially when it would shine up so good....

Reminds me of a red Cinquecento Sporting that I bought around 10 years ago.
Was a lovely shade of pink! Polished it up, and it looked incredible, but alas, after a bit of time, it slowly lost the redness again
Ended up selling it for good money after about 18 months ownership, but have recently regretted selling it as they are as rare as hens teeth now

NCT is a bit too short for comfort, but otherwise its textbook bangernomics.

Cheap 147

All that work to weld a boot onto a 147 just for an LPG tank. That's dedication.

I'd drive it in between getting something else if I was stuck,but for less, so not sure about the price, being right on top of the next nct, I think it helps if the owner just gets it done, know someone who did the same, they wouldn't part with 55 or so quid to do the nct and encourage a buyer for their car and were astonished no one called.
Ideal for that poster looking for something to do delivery, probably still reliable, insurance might be a killer.

Yeah! Bought it in 2008 and it was 1997 model with around 12,000 miles on it. Think there was about 14,500 on it when I sold it after. It was like a new car!

Right lads and lasses, last banger Skoda is due the test, and it will in it's ****e pass, so I'm on the hunt for something reasonable, that isn't thirsty, and that won't poison me with fumes, like the Skoda is.

50-70km a day, longer runs reasonably frequently, no need for a huge boot, and I'm not allowed any Alfas.
