Ford Fiesta 1.25 16v LX Bolton/Manchester
Selling as I may need a bigger car, estate preferable.
So about my Fiesta - Do I want to sell it? Not really as it's running well and can park it anywhere with ease!!
Its the burgundy or Pepper Red I believe the colour is
When I bought it there was some issues I noticed after I drove it away like I couldnt unlock it with the key, the rear seat base felt loose for my liking.
But the key thing was sorted by buying a new Key - so it will lock and unlock nicely
Rear seat base now secured
If you want a sales pitch then here it is
This car is cheap to buy, cheap to run (I'm getting 40mpg), cheap to insure and cheap to tax at £145 for 12 months compared to £180 if you go for a newer registered car of the same model
Park anywhere as its dinky plus the excellent handling means you'll have fun driving the thing.
The Mechanical bits
It's MOT'd until Dec 2015
Will be on 70k miles soon
Service History - just had a full service with new spark plugs, oil and filters
Timing belt changed at the last service and has had a new water pump fitted.
New reverse light switch
Good tyres (4 14" Alloys and 1 steel spare) with decent tread
Handbooks and service book present too
2 Keys (non remote)
Solid underneath
She now runs smooth, sweet and revs nicely with a good drive, and excellent ride + handling like a Fiesta should be
Spec
She has a radio cassette (ford orig) and front speakers only.
working cold air conditioning
Heated front (quick clear) windscreen and heated rear screen
Electric front windows
Power Steering
Not sure if this has ABS but I haven't had the wheels lock yet
Err I think thats it!!!
Fiesta Foibles
It's a 15/16 year old car not a concourse winner
What Fiesta foibles are left?
Firstly the heated front and rear screen - only works on the tops of the screen. Not sure why this is but as I didnt really drive her that early in the morning during winter it wasn't an issue for me.
When using the heater on full heat and fan - it doesn't get that hot - This i have noticed after having the car serviced but I'm going to check the water/heater matrix
Body wise - It's in general good condition - but the rear arches have rust, there's some rust on the rear door and theres a few scratches here and there where I think someone keyed it
Bumpers have been scuffed on the side
Not sure what other foibles there could be but please come look and test drive
The car is usually with me in Manchester (near Ashton) but sometimes I go to Bolton
Pics coming soon
Price £600 ono
