Selling on behalf of my Stepdad who has owned this car for 7 years but due to my nagging Mum he has to buy a newer car. The engine is a base model 1600 with 5 speed 118,000 miles. Interior is immac for age. Car has brand new Mot until Feb 2011. Taxed until July 2010. It's not worth a bundle but he would like 350 Quid. Please message me or email me ianlea73@hotmail.com Car is located in Bristol.     Thanks all!! |

Hi there. My father in law may be interested in this, as his Passat has just blown its head gasket (amongst other things  ) Power Steering? Central Locking? Electric Windows? Any known problems? How big is the boot, as he had an estate before, so he's bound to ask. Thanks again. - Dave - |

Car has power steering,it has central locking but the rear drivers door doesn't always lock or unlock,manual windows so no electrical probs.
For the MOT it had a front downpipe & that's it.
Just to answer a few questions the boot is like a cavern.A lot bigger than a Ford Focus or Vauxhall Astra.

Almost tempted by this as something I can just get in and drive every day.
Shame it would be so boring though

Haha yeah, that would be the idea. Not sure I can face FWD again though, unless in the form of a little MK2 Golf GTI...
How is it on fuel?

We had one of these for years, went well and sooo reliable, Bit of a boat to drive if I'm honest though...Possibly the most boring car I've driven next a to a diesel C class.

Boot capacity is a healthy 19cu ft(bigger than estate with seats up) Btw Focus/Astra not direct rivals to Carina  |
