This is hard because Neville and I have shared a lot of fun since we met in 2013, but now I’m not in work it’s difficult to justify running two cars, so with a glorious summer beckoning it seems the right time for someone else to enjoy his myriad delights – could that be you? This is a stock, silver 1.3 Copen, just 40k on the clock, 1 previous owner, registered in September 2009, so one of the last sold in the UK. It comes with all the usual goodies including: · full leather pack · aircon recently recharged · uprated Pioneer sound system with sub-woofer · daytime running lights · new Yuasa battery · full size spare wheel · lots of tread on the current tyres, and … · the FUN number plate stays with the car (seems perfect!). I had the car undersealed with Waxoyl in 2014 and it was sprayed into all the box sections too. I have re-applied it to the rear wheel arches as well, so there is no rust there. Neville has flown through every MOT (next is due September 2019) and comes with a full service history (all bar one main dealer) as well as three keys and a whole file of paperwork. He’s registered with the International Security Register, which is great back-up in case of theft. What are the bad points? Not many, really: there is some delamination of the alloy wheels near the centre cap, there’s the odd stone chip which I’ve touched-up, not much else, really. This is one Copen you can buy with confidence – he has been well looked after and cherished, and as a result the selling price is £4700. The car currently resides in Cumbria, but a good car is worth travelling to see – I went to Wales to buy him! Message me for further details if you are interested.
Shame to hear you are selling Neville Jules, he seems great condition and one of the few with a mot history like that. Sure he will be snapped up, if I didn't have mine he would be worth the trek, sure Someone will snap him up. I'll put word out up here.
Oh no! You can’t seriously be considering selling Neville, Jules! After so many adventures together, so much fun.....I will certainly miss you on the forum. I feel like we’re old friends, even though we’ve never met!
I to will miss you on here Jules , A lovely copen and I hope the new owner has as much fun as you in it . My Copen also has a " FUN " number plate X Can I ask where is your spare wheel kept is it underneath the boot on the outside ?
To be honest, Badger, you were the #1 person I thought of as I posted this - there's been some cracking banter along the way! Yeah, it'll be a helluva wrench, but it's the right (sad) decision. Cheers mate, and long live MLC!!
Cheers @Funksterhardtop! Magic to know that great minds think alike, haha! Spare wheel - it's in the garage and I keep a tyre repair kit in the car as a 'get-me-home' back-up.
Thank you jules ,where in cumbria are you please ,i live in York. I have been looking for a cherished 1.3 copen for a while it's a minefield . any other details although you have given plenty already .thank you Roy.
As of this weekend I have knocked a mega £500 off the price - this fab car is just £4195 now. A bargain for a beautiful Copen, just waiting to pile on those smiles per mile!
