Hi,
up for sale with a very heavy heart is my dream car. I've wanted one of these from the day they started making them in 2007. I finally got this one last year, and have now moved jobs and live 300 metres from my work, hence the very very reluctant sale.
Dont mistake this model for one of the basic models with the small wheels and bland interior. This is the Ti model, with the best and highest spec of them all. 19" wheels, lowered suspension, Brembo brakes, side skirts, chrome mirrors and the red logo leather seats.
The only option my car does not have is the factory sat nav, and by all accounts it is rubbish anyway.
Please dont be put off by the high mileage, as I have been a mechanic for 23 years and do not buy rubbish. This car has a substantial full service history. It was a Lloydstsb district managers car before me and it did 2 journeys a week between Windsor and Newcastle. As you probably know, 95% of wear on an engine is in the first 3 minutes of start up. This car does not smoke in the slightest. It is mechanically in A1 condition.
Everything that has needed doing has been done due to it being a Lloyds lease car.
The cambelt kit was done at 82000 miles, and the clutch and dual mass flywheel were done at 87000 miles. These are the important ones to note.
The only flaw with the car is the laquer which is peeling from the front bumper and edge of the bonnet due to stones on the motorway.
There are no dents, car park dints or scratches at all.
The Leather seats and interior are as new. The back seats look like they have never been sat in.
The things that I have done to the car are:
1: fitted a twin exit exhaust to make it look like the 2.4. (the 1.9 only has one tailpipe).
2: one of the main problems with modern diesels are when the DPF's (diesel particulate filter)block up and cause the engine to go into limp mode and is very costly to repair. Mainly caused by short journeys or town driving. I have had this removed and had a bypass pipe fitted, and at the same time had the engine remapped for more power and torque(and better mpg) to 195 bhp. The dpf software has been removed also. I did this to my previous SEAT Leon diesel as that one did block. The one I removed from this car is not blocked and will be available with the car if you want it, or I can refit it for you.
There is a lot of literature about this problem on google, so go ahead and look up "DPF problems". This can never happen to my car now, and it is not an MOT requirement to have the DPF on the car. This was done by an Alfa Romeo specialist, not a back street garage.
The car has many extras like the Blue and Me, which connects by bluetooth into your phone and you control your phone using the steering wheel controls and facia computer. It also has a USB connector in the glove box to play your music and stuff through. It has parking sensors, hill start brakes, auto wipers, auto lights, anti dazzle mirrors, remote deadlocking, electric folding mirrors, heated seats, electric everything, the list goes on.
The picture speak for themselves.
Please do not make any silly offers as this car with lower mileage would go for around £2000 more. And remember that the lower mileage ones will have done a lot of stop and starts, and the engine will probably be more worn than this one.
Come and have a look before bidding, as you will love the car when you see it.
I am a very honest and genuine ebayer, just look at my seller feedback. I do not buy or sell rubbish.
The landline number in the advert is my work number. I do 4 days on and 4 days off, so call or text my mobile first and I will call you back.
I will be looking for a VW transporter T5 once this sells to take my new motorbike to the track so if you have something I might like, let me know. Even better if its a Kombi van. Cash either way.
Thanks for looking.
