2003 fabia 1.9 tdi elegance estate, taxed and tested

[taffyboy]

This car has been my work hack for the last 2 1/2 years, its been super reliable and only for sale because I cant manage to sell my octavia (on another thread) so I'll start using the octavia for work instead.

Mot is up next month, a couple of things will need attention

Brakes, work fine but prob need new discs/pads soon.

CV joint on f/o/s clicks on full lock- been like it for 6 months, not getting any worse,

1x tyre,

couple of other things, not for mot and never really bothered me,

the module in drivers door lock that tells the car when the door is open is knackered,

the heater sometimes sticks to hot, a bit of fiddling with the switch soon sorts it out, the A/C still work though

light scrape has been touched in on bottom of front bumper,

2 owners from new

170k miles on the clock (barely run in) the engine pulls like a train,clutch and gearbox works as it should,

I use the car for an 80 mile commute to work every day,100% reliable.

2x keys all paperwork etc

for very little effort and money this car would be a great buy, if I could do the bits that need doing myself then I would, but I cant so I thought I'd let it go now,

£500, no offers, its probably the cheapest pd 1.9 tdi available

Car and me are in brecon, mid wales

2 more things to mention,

Bit of damp behind drivers seat and handbrake needs tightening,

Apart from all the points listed the car is A1

any history for timing belt?

any issues with pas ?

thats cheap for money.

1st dibs on this? very interested mate what colour is it? and would you be around sat afternoon?

[taffyboy]

Right gave it a quick wash today, looks like another 2 tyres are borderline (probably need replacing) however as a trade-off I will leave the sony bluetooth head unit in, cant say fairer than that

hears a few pics, the car is a bit rough and ready but with a bit of maintenance and attention would ensure it stays as a reliable family car for years to come,

the PAS works 100% never had a problem, the timing belt has only been changed once in 2007,

Thats a nice car, id love to have it as a spare...

[taffyboy]

aircon yes, works a treat,

however Jim just bought it, and just drove off in it,

cheers Jim
