306 HDi estate in diablo
Meridian spec - electric windows all round and leather seats - good condition
6 previous owners
MOT till November
No Tax
no history bar last MOT where it got new brakes all round
pretty mint inside and out
clutch pedal stuck to the floor sold as spares or repairs - I can get an uprated clutch for £70 and can hopefully fix it myself.
Went and had a look and it started first time but just had a horrible squealing noise from the engine which i presume is down to the clutch. Pedal has about an inch of play and is stuck down. Checked the clutch arm and cable was under tension. Thoughts? Auto tensioner broken?
Also left a medium sized patch of black on the floor but then again its a down turned exhaust and car has been standing since May.
Done a text check and not stolen or written off.
£350 and got him down to £300
Deal or no Deal?

just done a MOT check and the milage is correct and seems to go up by about 13k each year. Had some advisories in the last MOT but seller says that he fixed all of those anyway. Most of the stuff replaced has been to do with disks, pads and bulbs so pretty standard stuff.

Boom! Picked it up.... Backwheels were on the trailer by 3cm. And it overhung the back of the trailer by 3 foot!
and then we got it off and had to use a spade to raise the centre box to get it off the trailer and now its sitting... not very proud at my grans house.
Expect a project thread soon which will be me and tom moaning about clutches etc. For now... it has white dials, blue interior lights, new discs and pads all round, pretty muc new tyres, proper floor mats, a decent half leather interior, walnut dash and all the top spec stuff like door open icons on the dash
Im sailing tomorrow but will probably give it a clean in the next few days.

£300? Bargain. Plenty of spare change for those plans now
I feel we should start our own Estate OC now though, every fucker and his dog has one!
