When buying i felt like i was getting a bargain, am just wondering what you guys think this is worth, and if its worth more than i paid. It cost me £5200 (totally over stretched and blew my budget as i thought it was a good price, am hoping someone here can confirm)
MOT/Serviced till March next year, tax out at the end of the month
Year 2000 plus
66k on the clock
warranty replacement engine, turbo and clutch 18k ago. (oil cooler pipes failure)**
** now the recipt says recon engine, paid up by warranty holdings, now the seller says as far as he knew it was a new engine, BUT it does say recon. there is no mention of possible milage on the engine before hand, but surely a warranty company wouldnt put an old engine on a car???)**
according to aome people on here, fiat DID supply some new engines badged as recons.
it drives superbly BUT the niggles.
poorly repaired stone chip on the front bonnet (a 1 inch wide touch up paint right on the end of the bonnet - no dent)
some warbling on both the rear lower back light tunnels
some warbling on the black part of the A pillar - under the 20vt badge - only minor
a small (missed it when buying) crease on the drivers side door right at the end of the door - looks like someone opened the door into a wall and just caught the edge of the doot - can only see in certain light at the right angle.
other than that a few stone chips.
it looks in really good nick at a normal look over, i am being VERY critical. (the miltek is off the yellow peril, so didnt come with the car - not on pics!)
