Title: Hard starting
Post by: acope on 27 November 2012, 18:08:07

Hi guys, i`ve been looking for a while for a vehicle and have just come across this.
1995, 2.5 TD Auto Estate,166k for under £400.. just what I want BUT IT HAS SOME ISSUES,
Hard to start when cold, and cutting out when in use, I know its all abit vague, but as a disabled person at 70, I dont particularly want to be standing at the side of the road very often.
It is a "Trade Sale" and to be truthful they are not particularly interested in sorting it, they would rather break it for spares which seems a cryin` shame,
Your thoughts would be appreciated..thanks
