Don't buy my old...

[Yellow_Saxo_Paul]

Saxo which is for sale on pistonheads, L20 VTS let me knew on fb maybe she can post link on here for me as on phone.

Don't buy it as he selling it for a ripoff 1350 and also selling as vts which it is not at all! Its completely nackered and not worth the amount selling.

Thought I would give a words up

[VTHall]

link??

[L20VTS]

http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/2344565.htm theres linky :)

Vts indeed haha, wonder if they realize its only a 1.4 engine.

[mtpagey]

link??

If youd read the guys psot you'd see he couldnt post the link as he is on his phone.... :wall:

Here (http://pistonheads.com/sales/2344565.htm) it is

Edit : Damn beaten too it :sad:

[johnr32]

what is mechanically wrong with it anyway?

[Nik_L]

So whats exactly wrong with it??I actually think it looks no bad.

Possible its had an engine conversion??

[W103_A5H]

Thats quite nice actually, probs thinks its a vts because of the wheels lol

[L20VTS]

Its like an import or something I think.

It was at a local garage near me 2years ago and I looked at it everything about it is vts including logbook, 140mph dials the lot, just not a twin cam 16v engine.

[Yellow_Saxo_Paul]

1. Its not a vts which he advertising it for
2. Its worth max 500
3. Needs new axle whole back end is fucked along with boot
4. The lowering fucked the car when I had it done
5. The angels are fucked

Its not worth a tenner

I'm more annoyed he thinks its a vts

[Mr_X]

rear discs?

[VTHall]

thats really nice :)

[Yellow_Saxo_Paul]

Yes rear discs its got vts abs axle that is now fucked

He will sell it now due to tax and mot running out...

[Nik_L]

So its possible it really is a Vts but had a lower spec engine put in it??What did you advertise it as when you sold it??

You have basically said the whole cars fuked but havnt exactly said whats fuked about it.Apart from the axle.

Sounds to me your a tad pissed he's trying to get more money than you sold it for or the likes.

[Nik_L]

Yes rear discs its got vts abs axle that is now fucked

He will sell it now due to tax and mot running out...

3mth mot and 2mth tax.Hardly about to run out.

[L20VTS]

It was like a mint car when I saw it 2years ago, only reason I didn't buy it was because it wasn't a vts engine and I wouldn't downgrade from a vts.

[Yellow_Saxo_Paul]

Not just axle wishbone suspension etc all fucked

I part exed it

I'm not bothered how much he gets for it tbh

I was saying it not worth it plus its not a vts its a 1.4

[Nik_L]

When did you get rid of it??

TBH any1 who goes to look at it will pick up on the parts that are supposedly fuked and walk away/go in with a low offer.

[VTHall]

Not just axle wishbone suspension etc all fucked

when you came to the stoke meet it looked in lush condition.

[Yellow_Saxo_Paul]

Cheers vthall it was but I had forked out loads on repairs it wasn't reliable anymore then it needed that work doin

Its still in gd nick just not worth that money I bought it from a garage when it was on 62k for 2 grand...

[W103_A5H]

It was at a local garage near me 2years ago and I looked at it everything about it is vts including logbook, 140mph dials the lot, just not a twin cam 16v engine.

My furio is an import but now UK registered with UK plates, was under a IZ plate i think.

[Sax_DB]

just offered him £1300

[LeeM]

must be some kind of import, because its registered as a 1360cc vts with 120bhp lol

[Yellow_Saxo_Paul]

well i discussed with stupid amount of garages, citroen etc when i had the car and some think its an irish import or had engine change. Well weird.

Top end of worthness is £700/£800 imho

Its valued on many places at £500

[Nik_L]

I just sold my standard X reg black Vtr for 1100 with just under 100k on the clock.Had longer MOT and tax than the 1 in the link.

But imo the yellow 1 looks nicer.Theyr is hope he will get some interest at that price.But if its as bad as your making out mechanically,you shouldnt have to worry about his price.

How much did you get for it as a part ex??

[sharpy24]

if i remember rightly irish vts' are 1.4 so the guy technically isnt in the wrong, esp if the logbook states its a vts.

£538

just love how he says its "rare", theres at least two yellow ones here let alone anywhere else....

yes irish vts are 1.4's, thats what the car most prob is, had it for year and half and didnt come to a conclusion if it is or not, rang dvla about it and its been through a private plate change thats it.

Just dont want buyers being misleaded

[L20VTS]

Tbh its got to be worth around 800 as a 'furio' type all though still rather high milage.

You got ubber ripped on part ex on that!!

[Chr15]

Hi mate, do you have any photos of the engine bay?

I do mate ill send them tommorrow mine is a 1.4 limited editon only 200 made

Must have been more than 200?

+1

It's his car so he can sell it for whatever he wants. Plus how do you know he hasn't had all the niggles and problems sorted? Hence the asking price? Sorry mate but I think it's a bit off trying to persuade people not to buy it when you don't even know what has or hasn't been done to it.

that yellow colour is quite rare. 2 members out of the whole site isnt alot lol
doesnt seem that bad. Just the 1.4 engine, rear axle and wishbone if you like

[Decky-vtr]

its the irish vtr's that are a 1.4, from what i remember the vts's are a 1.6 ? could be wrong

[LSOfreak]

na you can get def 1.4 vts's. If not in ireland then somewhere in europe

[Rotrex_Rallye]

Legit.

[enthrone]

I read somewhere only 500 yellow mk2 saxos were made. Ive only seen 2 others myself.

[J222JRA]

maybe he fixed your wreck.....

[nicole_]

we buy any car seems to value it as a 'CITROEN SAXO HATCHBACK 1.6i 16V VTS 3dr' to be exact
so were you paying vts insurance?
i think its a little unfair, he might have fixed the problems and your just saying its a heap of shite

[-Jason-]

maybe he fixed your wreck.....

As above he could have done anything to it could have had all new parts but you have no idea and are just basically being a cunt.

[loudandproud205]

Cyprus and Spain also received VTS spec car's with poverty spec 8v engine's fitted.

As you can get Yellow 1.4 GTi's in spain and Cyprus (Quiksiver spec GTi colour's)

It says this on reg check ?! :err:

[Dom]

IMO, your pissing on somebody else's sale which is totally out of order!

Just because you had a bad time with the car and had a few problems, im sure the new owner would have sorted them. or Maybe you have bad feeling against the car because you got a low figure for it? Either way, its wrong to post this thread and all over your facebook.

Obviously its up for sale at a higher price than what anyone would pay for it, that is expected as the owner would know he would get knocked down on the price.

The rear beams looks good and straight in that photo as well. Maybe the guy bought it, realised it was a heap of shit, repaired it and is cutting his losses with expecting more problems come MOT time, I have been through it with my old VTR.

[devilsadvocate]

Its overpriced anyway, 106k miles with only three months MOT
Probably wouldnt get much more than hes asking with 12 months MOT tbf

A bit harsh but I totally agree with the above.
I would say the same but I'm being nice Aly in the run up to Christmas :A:

Such a shame. Im being Scrooge for a few days. Bar Humbug motherfuckers.

Pissing on someone else's parade pisses me off.

[Dom]

Saying that, just to make things stir a little more, just think when you sell your 207 Paul, would you like the old owner to make a thread on a car forum announcing it was a pile of shite when he had it? Even though in your hands the car is perfectly fine..

[Pixie]

It is true that they could have fixed it, It looks very tidy imo

So are they saying its only a 1.4 then?

So why is it listed as a VTS ?

I'm confuzzled :err:

The Irish versions of Saxo's have the VTS models as 1.4's (UK Furio).

Its an import, and paperwork has been messed up obviously on some websites.

Its previously an import :)

[devilsadvocate]

Just emailed him asking if it is a 1.6 16v and he replied with

"No its a 1.4 8v limited edition VTS'

In his defence, he hasn't lied
Assuming the back axle is fixed, I dont see anything wrong with the advert, except the price being high IMO but then as someone else said, aim high and people will knock you down :)

Good on yah for signing up and setting the record straight, it's a shame that he has tried pissing on your fire without any hard evidence that work has been done to the car.

First of all fair play to the lad who owns it now for coming on here and sticking up for himself and all that but i would have found it fucking hilarious if one of you bellends who have had a go saying paul is slagging it off etc brought the car and it was actually a bag of shit and you brought it knowing full well you had been warned!! would have made me smile tbh

Yeah this has happened when I went to motor parts shops with my GTI, it used to come back as a Rover 200 sometimes :wall:
Gave the lad my reg I want an exhaust fitting kit, Is that a Rover 200 sir?
Look out the window! Does that look like an effing Rover 200???!!

The outcome of this thread is.....

The car may be a shed.

It may have been repaired and now be an awesome little car.

Sadly not of us have actually seen it so we cant comment.

End.
