1996 Auto.
In very good condition. Starts first time every time. Comes with a front bumper that needs a respray. Current one on the vehicle has a crack where the previous owner hit it with his mobility scooter. Ive had it for 2/3 months but can't keep the insurance payments, very reluctant sale. 90k on the clock. Scrubs up lovely when clean. One small bit of rust on the rear right arch. I would also like to say that it was a while ago losing water, when i questioned this with my brother (a mechanic) it was diagnosed that i had caught it in the early stages of needing a new head gasket. It loses no oil, has no loss in power and only dumps the water after its been hot and it cools down. Even though it doesnt do it all the time. However it may not be headgasket. I've been assured there is no head damage, and it will be okay for a few hundred miles still. For this reason, as i was looking for an excuse to get rid of it anyway as £374 / month insurnace isnt that appealing anymore, it has been sat on my drive for a few weeks. I had to move it the other day and having been sat there covered in snow in below freezing conditions it still started first time. I am now being forced to drive a fiesta -_-

I just need to get it off the drive so i can service / fix the fiesta. The insurance skinted me out THAT much.

Dont let it being auto put u off. I thought the same at first.
If you like cruising or do long distances its nice to swag around in. It also gets a fair few looks when u lift off the throttle and it dumps. Dont forget you've always got the kick down when you want to go fast ;)

Yeah lol i would take it off but i cant find the original turbo piping lol :b
I found that when i had an induction kit on this, it made the turbo chatter instead of the usual dump at low revs, was quite nice.

Have to ask....
How on earth is the insurance £374 a MONTH???!!!
My Subaru tuned and modified and remapped by Andy Forrest wasn't much more than that a year, with everything listed....

Im afraid i dont no. I do like those wheels on it though. Would keep them but they dont fit my fiesta, so might as well leave them on it tbh.
