Unhappy I'm leaving you :(

Honestly really don't want to do this You guys have been awsome.



So, I'm going to be honest.


2.0 TDi Conosour Tourer- Copperleaf Red
2004 - 140,000 Miles


The Good
Leather seats - heated and motorised in the front

Has Tazu master and slave cylinders
Got a new DMF about 30,000 (ish) ago.
Got some new rear springs a while ago (30,000 ish).
Got a new rear exhaust 2-3 years ago.

Stock headlights fully cleaned and de-fogged a couple of years ago.

Got a new alternator last year (well, refurbed)

No frame or serious body damage other than a rear scratch on bumper
No horrible clunks or rattles while driving
Alloys are in good condition.
Starts every time.
I don't smoke
CD multichanger....... No longer jammed.
Comes with a well used Haynes manual.



The Bad
2004 - 170,000 Miles

Getting uneven wear on a rear tyres. Bushes or bearing probably starting to go, but not been flagged on MOT.
MAF is disconnected to get better power. Sluggish when back in.
Hydromount is leaking
Aircon leak (since I got it). Pipe has hole in. I have a spare that needs fitting.
Handbreak mechanism dodgy on one side, needs a new mounting plate.
Currently had a blown brake light, but that'll get fixed tomorrow.



The ugly
The gear stick works since box replacement, but feels like a spoon in a bowl of puddin'.
Gearstick gear position indicator gone.
Bezzel for internal drivers side door handle gone.

Front of bonnet rust was repaired, but rust coming back through again.
Ceiling liner fabric has dropped.
Ceiling light got hit and fell out. I think it's still in a foot well.
Usual wear and tear. small tear on back of drivers seat, door seal deteriorated but not leaking.


Ideally, I'm looking for someone who wants to keep him on the road. Will be more leniant towards restorers, then breakers. No cube crushers welcome. Currently looking at £500 and will get images. Please message with offers.


Cheers all,
Fubar.
