wehey Posted September 2, 2017 Report Share Posted September 2, 2017 I have for sale my lovely Seat Arosa 1.4 Tdi I have had the car for nearly a year and have carried out loads of work to make it the great car it is today. It's cheap to run and I get 60mpg all year round and only £0.08p per mile (see attached photo proof) Only £30 road tax and cheap to insure. It does have a remap to 110 hp but I can put the standard 75 hp map back onto it if you want. Current mileage is 131K but these engines are fantastic and easily make it past 200K without problems. Just change the oil religiously every 7K and it will last you forever. It has a Full Service History up to 126K which is when I got it. Since then I have done the following: 2x New Wings Oil/Filter change @ 127K Diesel filter changed Diesel purge New air filter Coolant changed Gearbox oil changed New clutch in July 2017 Underside wax-oiled including real axle and front subframe and rear side of new wings. 2 x new lower suspension arms (front) New anti roll bar bushes 2 new front tyres Rear tyres >5mm Remap to 100hp 60mpg + (see attached photo) £30 road tax Cheap insurance New stainless front de-cat MOT until Feb 2018. Passed last MOT with NO advisories Service history up to 126K Cam Belt changed at 103K A few points to mention. The switch on the driver side that operates the passenger window only goes up and not down although it work fine from the passenger side. I have a spare switch that is simple to fit. The clutch is brand new but very, very occasionally you can hear the release bearing stick on the gearbox input shaft and you hear a small rattle. Dip the clutch and it goes. This is not a problem and shouldn't be a concern. Front brake discs are slightly warped which you can feel through the pedal when braking hard. It went through the MOT fine like this. I have tried to be as honest as possible. I know this car inside and out as I do all my own mechanics. It will make someone a great cheap runaround. I think it's very well priced at £750 and has to go soon as I have just brought a new car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
