Just acquired an S-registered (1998?) Primera 1.6 hatchback. One owner from new, 21,000 miles for £460. Is this a good price?  Been on the drive for 3 years after the elderly owner had to give up driving. He had it serviced every year and had just put four new tyres on it. Fired up on first turn and then sailed through the MOT with no advisories. ;D
Was going to move it on but my Stilo has just gone rapidly downhill so I think we'll keep it. A few small car park bumps and comes in my least favourite colour - GREEN  Leigh (Area rep) Sounds like a bargain to me, as long as it's nice and solid. Low miles too. The 1.6 lumps are surprisingly more spritely than you might think. Is it DR2 green? The dark metallic one? Or the very rare light green one? What spec/trim level is it? |

Dark metallic and, yes, spritely is the word and solid is the build. It only has four warning lights (simples), so less chance of failing the current MOT which, I believe, will fail any car with warning lights showing.... is that correct?

Just bought another old Jap, and whilst I was after a B11 Sunny, this popped up for £250 tax and text a few miles away, so it would have been rude not to  Just sold my 02 Punto, which was an ideal A-B car but boring as hell. That should also allow me to get my Yugo 313 on the road |

Got a 2006 MR2 for daily duties & a Jaguar XJ6 which I am quite attached to that has been hibernating in the garage for a few years now, plus half shares in a Sierra & Scorpio used for drifting.
