Hello I posted on here for the first time yesterday. I'm almost decided on this car but don't want to make any mistakes. Wondered whether any of you had any tips? I have an automatic micra at the moment,low mileage cheap to run etc. But rubbish in snow & ice & only fits one guitar in in!
I've seen a 1.9 multispace forte. It's 2001 plate. 102k mileage I'm trying to reduce it to £1000 as they have no paperwork to say cambelt has been changed. Being sold by private garage who are members of the Trading Standards Fair Play scheme. It's booked in to my mechanic tomorrow for a check.
I'm just wondering whether any of you have experience of this model. I have a small business, often driving up hills in rural areas, carrying various boxes, bags, dog, guitars, gazebos, table, chairs, so there's the attraction. I dont earn a steady wage so no finance or newish Berlingo for me. I dont mind it being a bit slower, what i don't want is something that's going to cost me dearly. I read one review where someone had real problems with the electrics, other reviews have been glowing.
Any good on steep hills?
Also does anyone know what would be a reasonable offer for it? it's immaculate inside, no rips, engine sounds great but I think it may be due for new cambelt & poss major service... any tips would be wonderful :wave:
Me again- i forgot, one bloke said his had cut out on the motorway... Im hoping that's not something you hear often?
