Anyone want a daily abuser? No longer needed, not sure on how to price it. I’ve done 500 mile a week in it for 2/3 years, owned it for 6 years total. Now 173k mile. Just passed mot. I bought it as approved used from ballyrobert Vauxhall with 80k on it. It’s 2011 I think from memory. No rust or bad damage etc. only time it let me down was clogged fuel filter, also put a clutch and fly into it at a point along with basic maintenance. Is due an oil change and timing belt unless you want to run the risk.

What happened with the Dacia in the end? @gary1365

Really need to get a replacement for the Volvo soon, it’s got two punctures I keep topping up because I’m too tight to put tyres on it as the MOT is up soon.:joy:

ATM it’s parked in the waterside in Derry hopefully it’s not there when I go back to get it 🤣

I’m going to look into what’s wrong with it and send it up the road at some point.

Unfortunately it seems like stuff is less often worth fixing these days with the price of parts and labour.

Opinions. 1500 quid a fair start point to dispose of this on the usual outlets?

I rang up Nissan for a price on a genuine MAF sensor for a Juke, £220….i near fell off my seat!

That’s nothing. Some of them are well over £500, and it could be for a simple motor like a Hyundai Santa Fe, not necessarily anything exotic. £220 for a genuine MAF is cheap…
