I\'ll be moving to France in November to start a new job so selling up as much as I can before I go. I have backup plans for all 3 cars if they don’t sell. All are priced low enough so no silly, offending offers.

First up, my reliable and economical daily runner. 2004 Citroen C2 GT

It’s been in the family since new, both older brothers have previously owned it and it was handed down to me at the beginning of the year.

79000 miles (the last 20k were done by me)
12months mot (only needed new bulbs and wipers)
5 months tax
Just had a service at Citroen

Like I said, it’s my daily runner, I do Brighton to Guildford in it and get 47MPG on the b roads and it worked out cheaper to run that the TDi Golf over the same distance, it\'s also a lot more fun.

Bad bit, Brother Adam reversed it into a lamppost at some point pushing the back in. Wheels have a few marks on them. Standard car apart from a pikey air filter (I’m sure the original is at my brother’s house somewhere)

Asking price is £1800











Next up is my ghetto 1998 VW Golf 1.9 GTTDi. 120,000 on the clock.

It was my daily runner before the C2, but the route I take is pothole ridden and the MK4 sump is too low. I got bored of replacing sumps. Parked the car up and haven’t used it since.

My old man replaced the sump and the car starts, runs and drives fine. It’s booked in for an MOT and it should pass first time. It’s also had new brake pads all round and a new hub on the passenger’s side.

Engine is the standard 115ps spec, no chip or remap, gets about 55mpg typically. I’ve used it to run down to the apls a few times where it’s got up to 70mpg.

Bodywork has been played with, rubbing strips have been remove, number plate from the front has been relocated to the bin (has got me in trouble a few times from the feds but never a fine) the badge and wiper on the rear removed and the typical Euro sticker job on the rear. A few scrapes which can be seen in the pictures.

Interior is full leather, heated seats, suede roof lining and an Audi TT dash. Parrot Bluetooth thing that also connects to an iPhone/iPod and plays music through the speakers.

Asking price is £1500 With MOT (I won’t be taxing it as I don’t have it insured)











Last up, and the best in the collection, I might just garage it, still undecided.

If anyone is interested let me know. I am a bit busy at the moment and don’t check here often, but if you’re serious I can be emailed on kieron@fduk.org and it’ll come through to my phone.

C2 is in Brighton
VW is in Ditching, E.Sussex
Imp is in Guildfordish area (can\'t remember the name of the town where the garage is)

As I said, a backup plan for all 3. I\'ll take the VW to France with me (I have a company car there but would be useful to have another car to throw dirty bikes in the back etc) The C2 will get passed down the family tree.

If the Hillman doesnt sell, it\'ll stay in the garage, I\'ll fly over and drive it down via le mans :thumbsup:
