Anyone interested in one of my cars?

Both are mk1, trophy blue saloons with the extreme spoiler.

180-

-belts done
-144,000 miles (prev owner commuted from Hayes to Bristol)
-FSH, all documentation to prove
-I'm the 2nd owner, been owned by a 62 year old man from new
-just serviced
-plenum replaced, but needs VIS replacement
-needs new tyres, I've got 2 that I will give away, the other 2 should be fine for a while, but there are 2 on at the moment that aren't legal
-very good condition for it's age, has been reliable
-been used for 3 months over summer, then SORNd. Was MOT'd when I bought it, so should be good for the next one as it's been barely used, just fixed up a bit.

120-

- approx 48k
- extensive history- changed oil every 5k, been the owner since 27k
- loosing coolant, but no mayo.
- Tyres are ok
- no MOT or tax, but I don't mind putting it through an MOT, it's mechanically sound.
- full stainless powerflow/peco hybrid exhaust. powerflow down pipe, peco/powerflow cat back. Not loud but noticeable. Nice noise if you open her up.


Both cars are decent, perhaps need a bit of work but I just don't have the money for them anymore and I don't have the space. I'll probably be getting a motorbike when I finish uni, cost of motoring is disgusting these days!

Offers? What would you pay for them?

mattie007 is just really nicemattie007 is just really nicemattie007 is just really nicemattie007 is just really nicemattie007 is just really nice
Bikes are dirt cheap and even better in performance to a 180.

Compare a 180 to my bike....

65mpg v 25
3.8 0-60 v 7.2
£65 tax v £250

Then again, if I could afford a 180 I'd have one over the bike

So you drive your car in your birthday suit do you?

To be honest it may take me a whole 2 mins to put on a jacket, gloves, helmet and a pair of boots, the time in which is saved by being able to get to my destination so much quicker on the bike than i ever could in the car.

Whereabouts are you starfire? I may stick in a cheeky offer on the 180 if your not a million miles away

You need something more than a derv for a commute of that distance!

May cost a bit more than a 180 to run but will get you to work on time!
