SAD NEWS.......CAR NEEDS TO GO TO FUND WEDDING was created by Ryan
Ladies and gents, it pains me to say this, but I am going to have to sell my lil yellow exxy in the coming months :0 (
I got it as an engagement present to myself (girls get rings, what do guys get?), lol. I was hoping to get many happy years of motoring out of her and have used her daily since the day I picked her up, however, it would appear that my partner is quite keen to get me down the aisle (can't honestly think why) and as such has planned the day, booked a venue and spent more than all of my money. This is the second one I've owned and is by far the best.
I've just had a full service carried out as well as a few little electrical niggles that needed rectifying sorted. Now it drives pretty sweetly, which makes me sad as I will not have the opportunity to experience it for much longer.
I have also had to go back to work and my shift work seriously affects my 'exxy drive around town' days. I use it every now and then to go to and from work. But its a 50 mile round trip and its much thirstier than my skoda lol.
Havent got around to taking any photos as yet. Just thought I'd see if there were any interested parties prior to her making her internet auction debut lol.
Any q's, feel free to ask away. I'm not a mechanic............just a mere car lover, but I will try my utmost...........I can always refer to my trusty haynes manual lol.

Okay,
Here she is in all her glory.
Has MOT until Nov 13', Tax Until 31/05/13.
Has 50k on the clock. Mot's over the past few years to back up mileage.
Had only covered 2k in the last 3-4 years prior to my ownership.
Timing belt & head gasket replaced @ 48k.
Have just had a full service carried out, had the handbrake tightened, electrics rewired.
New CD Player fitted (old casette deck still present in box, to go with car).
Comes with 2x X1/9 Luggage bags (Which i am told are quite rare).
..........And.......My insurance for myself & My partner with breakdown cover & an agreed annual mileage of up to 4k is only £140 per year.........I'm 28 & My mrs is 26.........Thats pretty reasonable
)
All in all she is a beauty. I have bits and pieces of history & auction brochures where the car was sold. Inside it states the car has been waxoyled from new & the condition would suggest that this be the case.
Ver minor rust issues, worst of all being to the front boot (as pictured) which is mainly surface rust. Mechanic didn't notice any issues that needed addressing with regards the struture of the vehicle.
Any interested parties let me know as I'd prefer not to sell via eBay.
Cheers Guys
