Needs a full service including timing belt, was last serviced at about 30k iirc! Guy was a tool and couldnt drive, I'd advise getting the subframe checked out along with most other suspension things! Although I did put a new offside wishbone, bushes and balljoint on so they should be all good still.
The right side xenon has a dodgy starter and when I had it the aircon died and the exhaust kept falling off!!
The zorst fell off the day I got it and the rear heatsheild shortly after, bought Alis standard one off him but that was beginning to go when I traded it too!
Xenon seemed more likely to come on if you didnt use auto lights, auto wipers were s**t but dunno if thats the system or if they were dodgy ones!
Clunking noise is new! I never really serviced it tbh. Decieded it wasnt worth the money of doing it up and got rid! I just tried to make it a bit safer but lost heart when things kept going wrong, like the aircon fan!
Also it should've had a cd player in the dash but for some reason awas a tape player and the remote stalk on the wheel- the volume down button was stuck pernamently on. Oh and I have the front speakers sat in my garage!
Spare is also f**ked as is teh yellow nut thing that holds it down!
If i remember more i'll let you know but personally i wouldnt reccomend you buy it even if he does fix it up!
btw i spent 8 hours cleaning the interior, even took the seats out, the guy had kids never could get the stain out the passenger seat, ddint look good either! Gutting that its filthy again!
Yeah never got much of a chance to comapare it speed wise but it defo didnt handle right.
BTW the big dent abover the rear side window was caused by a ladder falling on it!
