    It's no supercharged Jag but if all it needs is 4 tyres it looks like excellent value to me :)

    Maybe perishing hoses..... Tis 21 years of vintage :eek:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,917 ✭✭✭✭Toyotafanboi


    i think 3 series of that vintage are known for corrosion on the rear pipes and the tank has to be dropped to replace them?

    • 65mpgs me hole

    Final Update on the ebay Megane for Auction. Someone went bananas and paid €1700 for it.:eek: I thought €700ish would be tops... !! as a matter of interest would anyone recommend ebay auction as a way of buying a car?

    http://www.ebay.ie/itm/Renault-1-4-Megane-Zero-milage-Selling-complete-car-spare-parts-only-/111076188393
    looks like it is a damm good way to sell one, one would need to be careful spending that kind of money after a test drive, never mind some hopeful sellers spiel.

    If you knew the real mileage it's only worth the NCT/ a tenth of the asking price....

    If it were clean at least!

    I did notice the stuff I said the last time was taken into account, must be gawking through boards :pac:

    That's not just any old Punto, that's an 85ELX. Quite hard to find, quite nippy too ;)

    May have corroded brake lines at that age

    Gone :eek:

    A chap I know has one, only passed it's NCT and it fried the ECU.... So sat at the front of his house with 11 months NCT and 6 months tax.... Since last August. Now being scrapped! He has it stripped down quite a lot as is :eek:

    I put a metric f*ckton of work into that car and got nothing for it, not even a thank you :mad:

    What I will say though is thank you karma, the new car is an absolute money pit :)

    Hate those fcuking Stilo's. Honest to god the only good thing about 'em is the price.They're cheap and cheap for a reason. Hateful yokes!

    Must find a Corsa for sale soon btw....;)

    To be fair the first run of them were loaded with spec. Loads of safety equipment, nice looking and something a bit different.

    To paraphrase yourself, as long as you maintain them religiously and keep fixing them they're great :-)

    I was looking at picking up a regular SR16, gearbox etc but if this is around in a month or two... Well, it's worth a look. :D

    VZR N1

    Crashed, Almera front end and some dodgy body work but that's a doner and a half!
