Car now sold
1996 Citroen AX 1.0 Dimension, 63,533 miles, MoT to May 2013. I bought this with the vague idea of dropping a VTS engine in it, but I'm never going to get round to it, and I now have an absolute shed of a BMW 318i Touring E36 which needs love instead.
Just had the head gasket replaced (usual AX oil leak at the front left corner of the head), timing belt was done at 54k, new exhaust back box, good tyres, new battery last year etc etc. Runs and drives well, I can't think of anything that needs doing urgently.
Body and interior are pretty tidy for the age but not mint - usual AX collection of dents, scuffs and scrapes. At the moment it has a carpeted flat rear floor in place of the rear seat (AX van!) but the original seat comes as part of the deal.
A few advisories on the MoT - rear brake hoses, slight play in one of the rear suspension arms and a suspect looking area of crumbly underseal on the floorpan near one of the wishbone mounts. But you've got a year to sort that lot out.
Looking for £450. Car is in Thetford, can be viewed during normal working hours, evenings and weekends by arrangement. Ring me on 07776 287953 if you want to come and have a look.
