Description
Registered 2nd March 2009.
First and second ownership was in one family, father then the son. 3rd owner had it from September 2018 until my ownership from 3rd April 2019.
64,858 miles on the clock at that point, now on approx 82,200 (car is used at least weekly so that will increase slightly).
Tyres were replaced in May 2019 , tread at about 5 mm plus all round. Michelin Pilot Sport 3 in 195/50 15 (gives a better ride than the 45 profile I find).
Serviced every year around March. Service book has a stamp for every year, photos of those enclosed.
New exhaust 2 years ago (as near to standard as I could find), cambelt and water pump were replaced last September 2024. Gear linkage cable just replaced,mechanically all is sound, clutch fine, gearbox, brakes, discs, pads etc. Drives well, always returns me between 40 and 50 mpg. I have always run the car on Shell Optimax V Power 99 octane fuel.....not necessary but sometimes the car wouldn't be used for a couple of weeks and I didn't want any 95 octane 10% ethanol fuel doing any damage to pipes etc!
I have tried to keep the car in as original condition as possible, original radio CD works well, gear lever gator has been replaced, front fog light replaced as they had yellowed.
Bonnet was repainted in 2019 just to get rid of the paint chips from 10 years of use. Also at that time the wheels were painted and any chips/marks corrected. No kerbing marks. Rear and front bumper also repainted at that time as they were both looking a little tired.
I have a handful of invoices and receipts dating back over the lifetime of the car.
One small mark on the rear drivers door about one cm across, all other doors free from any car parking marks etc. Also top of windscreen centre of roof tiny dent when car was in the garage, cat jumped down and managed to dent the roof!!! She wasn't that fat either!
Some welding to a sill and cleaning up and protection of the sills and rear axle sub frame have now been completed along with the other advisories in the last MOT including replacement of the rear coil springs.
Current MOT is until 12th March 2026.
I have loved driving this 'warm' hatch, selling after 6.5 years as I'm finally looking at something else.
Any questions please get in touch. Car is based near Wimborne, Dorset.
Thanks for reading.
