Moonstone Blue 1.6

Post by LongSummers »

A fun little car, perfect for the summer. It’s a runner but has a noise from the engine bay, will need a new exhaust and wing mirror housing. The bodywork and interior show age with the odd paint chip and leather rip / fade.

Economical retuning over 40mpg, and great fun in the sun with the roof down. Cheap for someone who knows what they are doing.

Mot till December, Road tax till October.

Just a suggestion, get it through the MOT first, then it might sell better.
