Where are you located?

[michalko82]

Manchester (Audenshaw)

[michalko82]

Still up for sale, just had the front discs&pads ( Ferodo) replaced ( the only advisory on last MOT)

[Rhys94]

Would you consider a purchase on Monthly payments mate? Was involved in a car accident on Halloween and my Fabia has been written off

[michalko82]

HI Rhys,

 

sorry, but as a private seller i don't think it would work...too much hassle + my other half would deffo not agree. I think this works when cars are in a warranty, but hardly on a used car unless you're a trader.

Hope you find something suitable soon, good luck

[Rhys94]

No worries, cheers mate!

Now withdrawn from the sale

Would you be interested in a swap for a type r civic unmolested and completely standard apart from hid kit and polybush mounts on gearbox just had recon box and new clutch its a facelift ac model

[michalko82]

We can meet and have a look at both cars...

What reg is yours? 

I'd need to check my insurance premiums (just bought an EGR cooler delete and PD 150 turbo so even harder decision)....  I was after a type R before buying the Fabia, but all were trashed

[michalko82]

The car is now up for sale again, MOT will be done in 2 weeks. I really love it on A roads and M'ways, but my driving is ~5-10mph and it's just wasted on this sort of car as the turbo never kicks in. My annual mileage is 5-6K so it doesn't make sense to drive a diesel.

If you have Swift sport and want a P/X I'm listening or straight sale at £3500 ish as the car has a LOT spent on in last year (new suspension, new wiring loom and injector seals, newly remanufactured PD150 turbo and remap by Faboka to cca 190-195bhp, and few minor bits)

Comes with 2 spare alloys in very good condition (with good tyres)

Mileage is 133k at the moment and very slowly rising

Just to add, the AP suspension has been replaced for a brand new Bilstein B4 setup in March 2016 so the car looks stock and the ride is not harsh on battered city roads

[Stewpotz]

Bargain for the price, nice to see an SE less than £5000!

[michalko82]

I think this is very realistically priced car, slight premium over run of the mill vrs, the leather interior is like new, everything is in working order.

If it won't sell I'll happily keep it as there are not many left, but I'm kind of keen on the petrol again

and the 2012-on swift sport looks like a nice town car

[LGM]

I've seen this car in the flesh and it's a nice example of an SE. Good luck with the sale buddy.

[michalko82]

New MOT today, passed first time.

Next one is 11 June 2017.

Any chance of some more pictures?

When was the cambelt last changed?

 

Thanks

[MozzieOwner]

Now if my Octy had sold would be all over this.

 

Local too.

If you had said you were thinking of selling it I'd have taken the car and sold mine rather than take your AP's and fit them to mine. Time to empty the piggy bank methinks.

The car might be sold soon, which makes me twitch. Still not sure it's the right thing to do, but at less than 5k miles/year I think I should go for petrol...it smells soooo much nicer but I will miss the torque and sound of turbo :(

maybe little turbo petrol is the answer

[michalko82]

Car is still for sale as the buyer bought a Cooper S before viewing mine...

 

a quick picture from this rainy morning

My wife wants the VRs back. Hates the lack of torque in her i10. Or in her words, it's crap at junction, just revs and barely moves. Go fab go!

[Phil2013]

Long shot but would you consider a straight swap for my mondeo? 

 

Its got full history including the belt change

[Wet Kipper]

makes me miss mine (#082) even more....

[michalko82]

haha I was actually looking at the i10... as I do 10-20mph 90% of the time these days.

But if the Fabia goes I'm getting IQ...ugly, but parks on 50p

Sorry pal, the Mondeo is opposite to what I need... I'm after a tiny shoe box
