Really surprised this hasn't sold. I don't have room for more that one car but how I wish I had.

This car is as good as it gets and I do hope you get what you are asking as I think the price is so cheap for a car of this quality.

I can imagine anyone buying this car will also get the best after sales service a man could wish for.

Good Luck Rich and I really do mean that.

Thanks, sadly, it is generally viewed as not worth the money, despite having no faults and given that it will give a minimum of 50,000 miles service with pretty much nothing but tyres and wiper blades.

You asked why we think it has not sold. My personal reasons are:-

Too big for my daughter. She needs a city type car.
My wife wants an auto. Yours is manual.
I have my eye on a ZT 180 auto at half the price. Yes it needs work, 2 tyres etc.
I already have a 1.8 manual club se and its great.

4 simple but relevant reasons why I am not catching a train to Cheshire.

Don't think for one moment its overpriced or the wrong spec. Its a lovely car just waiting for the right buyer with an ounce of brains to recognise a gem.

And my wife appreciates the comfort & ride but thinks they're old men's cars, otherwise I'd have bought one for her instead of the Fiesta.
My stepdaughter also likes ours though also thinks they're not a car for a young lady of 22.
She's wrong of course & her Fiesta is coming up for replacement at some point & she hasn't ridden in ours yet.

Seems the 1.8s aren't that popular nowadays, Colin (2diesels)- has had no interest in his gold 1.8, which is every bit as clean and good as the one Rich has for sale. It also has had the head gasket and associated works done:
No one has even viewed it .,,

Well I'm definitely on the lookout for a 1.8 tourer, sorry no good for Rich though at this time. I am actually hoping to swap or part exchange my car.

Sorry for poaching the thread Rich, take is as a free bump.

Default you have a passion.

There is no doubt you do m8,the thing is,they are big cars and scare of wee people that think they cant drive big cars...the if i pass my test in a fiesta then i cant drive another car.
The insurance and tax is a big deal too...running costs...there are so many reasons now....but my neighbours love mine,looks class,but think it costs a fortune to run,thing is,its a duracell battery,costs more,but runs for longer...mine is 11 years old,looks like it came out a showroom....defo not an 11 year old fiesta...
Matt.

Bump with a price drop, a reliable, bargain car for anyone looking for a replacement.
