*Edited* Added dog guard, roof rack bits and door seals issue)

So, the girlfriend doesn't like the Carlton and has been given a Peugeot (gah!)  Roll Eyes

£500 ONO

Subsequently it is for sale! (The Carlton)...

  • Mileage: Just under 100k
  • MOT until March 2011 (On the MOT the only advisory was the indicator lens and failed on windscreen wiper blades, since replaced)
  • Tax until end of July 2010
  • 3 good tyres, 1 getting tyred (geddit) (have set of 4 omega alloys and very good tyres - could do a deal)
  • Tow bar
  • Original CD multi changer!!!111 (may or may not actually work)
  • Good interior
  • Some joker bumped into the front of the car and cracked bumper and grill
  • Missing offside front indicator lens
  • offside fog light lens cracked
  • lacquer peeling on door tops
  • Wonky water level sensor
  • Central locking not entirely functional Smiley
  • Includes Metal dog guard
  • Includes roof rack fittings (cross bars, clamps etc)
  • Offside rear door, rubber seals along sill has come away

Things my brother says will be useful to know:
  • Rear door shuts and arches pretty rust free
  • Front strut tops to bulkhead very rust free
  • Very rust free in all the usual places
  • Has had a small patch to front chassis leg and front inner arch

I am listing all the faults to be totally honest with you but all round it is a sound, rust free (relatively for a Carlton), mechanically sound Carlton Estate that has driven some decent length journeys without issue and in stop start traffic. Will take photos of specific parts (you may have to draw me a map) on request.

Now for the pictures!!

Ah nuts, yes. I had an issue with that web server which I haven't been able to bring back up yet.

I will put them up elsewhere and renew the images. Thanks, Jimmy.

This is still for sale chaps, mostly because I have been too lazy to get the thing advertised on auto trader which I need to get done this evening.

Anyone interested? The other half has put a restriction on it, I need to get it on auto trader and sold in a month or she is scrapping it (it is her car) as she is fed up with it.

I would rather have it go to a carlton head than some random on the trader.
