Citroen Saxo...

mattie007 · 26-01-11, 09:56 PM

1999 V 1.1 3dr
East Coast Special edition (fancy coloured seatbelts and yellow gearknob!)
Very low mileage at 46000 miles
BRG
Sony CD player (slighty broken screen)
Sunroof
Some tax
50mpg on long runs
Had ?300 spent at the last MOT for welding last summer

Bad bits:
It was broken into in Sheffield and the drivers door sticks out at the top by 10mm. It also has to be locked from the passenger side.
Sometimes takes a few goes to get it started.

?450 ono

Used to work at a Citroen garage. Very common way of breaking into a Saxo.

could try bending it back, block of wood near the latch, shut the door against it and gently push the top repetivly checking it every few pushes to see if its moved

Good idea Ritchy!

Daytona, does the price sound about right?

Exactly how much tax and MOT is on it?

Pfffft, glass is flexible, just keep it up!

As Stamford suggested, if there's a reasonable amount of tax and MOT left on it then it's a decent price.

Looks like a decent wee new drivers car that

Personally peter id put the window down but it would probably be okay with it up
