I suspect after fees and the markdowns when they walk round it, you will get less than half scrap value.

I hope they will appreciate it as a future classic and pay me the full wedge.

I hear 'Motorway' pay better money but I have no experience of them.

Of course as a future classic, WBAC will be so eager to get their sweaty paws on it that they won't be at all phased when you tell them about the dodgy gearbox!

Motorway won't touch it with a shitty stick.  They are only really interested in newer, low mileage cars.

Yep, motorway is just a bunch of dealers bidding to buy your car, and they pay a commission to the introducer (Motorway). They tart them up, service them, possibly MOT them and put them on the forecourt.
The process is a PITA. You have to tell them everything about your car and take photos to upload. You get an outline to fit different parts of your car into and, if it's not an exact fit, the pics keep getting rejected. In the end I lost the will to live, and also the will to sell my astra.


Stop effing around and get the gearbox fluid changed. If that doesn't work, I doubt the car is worth throwing any more money at, unless you're so attached to it you'd pay to keep it running.

Just returned from an MOT pass.

A few advisories though.

Nail in nearside rear tyre.
Track rod ball end (offside) has slight play.
Offside front wheel bearing has slight play.
coil springs corroded (all four springs).
Brake pipes corroded, covered in grease and other materials.

Other than that she is still a spring chicken of a car.

I must say that 'the old guard' on here are an excellent source of information about dodgy car buyers.

I speak of STMO, Tigger, and The Boy.
