slamdunc 0 Report post Posted August 26, 2014 (edited) Anyone interested in a new project? This engine has a suspected blown head gasket. The cooling system is becoming over-pressurised; but the radiator, water pump and thermostat are all good. The car has not overheated, and is still driving beautifully.Aside from this engine issue, the car is in great condition. There is a spot of rust inside one of the rear door surrounds, but aside from this the body is rust-free and in excellent condition. The interior is good, although the driver's seat is getting pretty worn. The wagon is an auto, it reads 238000km on the clock, is WoF'd until November and rego'd til April 2015. I have owned the car for 9 years, and have loved it. It is a really great car to drive. I have kept it well maintained and am sad to see it go - but I need a bigger car (and have bought one already), and I am not up for the repair mission this wagon needs.I have taken the stereo out (for the new wagon), but have included the Panasonic stereo (which I took out of the new wagon). I am trying for $2000ono. Car is based in Grey Lynn, Auckland. Contact Duncan on 021-621-937 Edited August 26, 2014 by slamdunc Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tidy30 38 Report post Posted August 30, 2014 Yeah I left a bunch if texts and calls trying to sort a time to see/buy it but could never reach the seller. Then I heard back that someone had snuck in with a tactical deposit and was going to go look at it later on! Whoever it was, well done! Deposits never crossed my mind. Pretty sad, but easy come easy go! Guess I'll have to spend all this extra cash on the vert now! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
