Hi,

I'm looking to sell my na.

it has covered 48k miles, and is mot'd until the end of April.

The car is an almost standard, British Racing Green na.

The only mods are drilled/grooved disks, and stainless steel Sill plates.

The engine has no rattles or strange noises, and uses no oil between services.

The EGR has been replaced with a blanking plate and cheater.

It has service history at the supplying Vauxhall dealer. There is one stamp missing where the car was offroad for a time.

it has had front ball joints and drop links in recent years

The Geo has been checked and is within spec

The tyres are ok for tread,

 

 

The bad bits

it has the optional biscuit leather interior

it has the usual wear on the drivers seat bolster

There are some blisters in the paint, but generally good.

It had a new front clam about 10 years ago, and there is a slight difference in the weathering of the paint.

 

It comes with a spare new and a second hand hub bearing, the dash plate without the radio slot

There is a folder of history. MOT's, tax disks and bills.

 

Pictures to follow

 

I'm looking for £7000

Nice car. If I had not have bought one in September I'd have been on the phone. Good luck with the sale and biscuit looks great with the green.

Hi Chris,

 

This retirement lark is not panning out as I'd hoped, so we can't justify more than one car, and so I think it has to go. Looks like we will just be running the ASX for the forseeable future

 

what I really need is 6 numbers on  Saturday night.

 

Tony

Hi All,

Thanks for the interest,  I've tried to uploadphoto's, good and bad, to photobucket, I hope it works.

 

http://s61.photobuck...0?sort=3&page=1

 

I have struggled to photograph the difference in paint colour on the "new" clam, The best I've managed is actually in the original post #4 where you can see  the front is slightly darker.

 

Apologies for those who have PM'd me, I'll reply ASAP

 

Thanks Tony

Looking through the photo's Tony, looks a great steal for 7k!  

 

The paint bubbling/flaking shouldn't cost a lot to repair for any new buyer.  Have you thought about getting a quote from a paint shop and getting it touched up/repainted, could add another £500 to your price, can't see it costing more than that to fix.
