Cage for sale

[marty]

would anyone mind if i put one of my cages on here for sale? it is related to my motorbike, as i need to sell it (the car) to pay for the bike, and at least it keeps the rain out :)

[Motoracer]

Go for it man! :niceone:

There was a Toyota Corolla for sale here a while back anyway, so you wouldn't be the only one.

[SpankMe]

To get funds for the bike is the only reason I can think of to allow cages to be advertised here.

[marty]

thanks guys.


It's a 1994 Ford Telstar TX5i 5 speed liftback. 225000kms. It has the integrated spoiler in the hatch. Standard trim, colour white. The only addition is a Kenwood CD player. it is a NZ new car, and has been used as a Cambridge to Auckland commuter basically since new, first by an AIR NZ international hostess (she only commuted 3 or 4 times a month), then by me for the past 3 months. I've since bought another car (A Mitsi Diamante - with cruise control!) and if I want to keep my bike I have to sell the Telstar, as one can only have so many toys. It has always been serviced, and runs like a dream. I was getting an easy 8 litres per 100ks (approaching 40mpg) running it to AK and back. It has a factory towbar, brand new front tyres, rears are 20% worn. WOF will be fresh on sale, and there is 3 months to run on the rego.

I'm asking a ridiculously low $3250 ono for it. Compared to a Jappa Primera/Bluebird/Accord etc I reckon it is very good value.

I'll take a pic of it when the sun comes out, meanwhile the one I've attached is the same model, same hubcaps, same interior - my one is just white

I'd keep it as a back up for the Diamante - you're gunna need it mate....

[marty]

i dunno - one owner, serviced every 10k, NZ new, 3.5 model. and i've got a mate who is the service manager at the mitsi shop so.....

[Motu]

And he walks around with his eyes shut???

thanks guys.

Haha I fixed mine last week so shut up you!! Good cars tho (mines a V6 auto with all the extras, 280K on the clock and still going strong) although has a habit of going through HT leads every couple of years.
Thoroughly recommend them and wouldn't hesitate to buy another when I've run this one into the ground...especially at that price!!

[FROSTY]

ill second the diamantei thing motu --I refuse to sell em--too much trouble.
Do not talk to me about mitzi tippy gearboxes --arggggg

[marty]

it's not a tiptronic box. just been serviced and shows excellent condition. a bit like the telstar really

[marty]

PRICE REDUCTION!!!!!!!!!! OFFERS UNDER $3K WILL DRIVE IT AWAY....

Sorry mate, we just bought a new car. Although we just traded in the Holden and a representative of the West Auckland residents society came visiting asking us what the story was. I showed him an unregistered vehicle on the property and he was okay with that - we can stay for now.

[FROSTY]

And you diddn't come see me bob HRUMPH

But has it been sitting on blocks for the past 12 years and are the chooks nesting in the boot?
