    Car Description

    Car History
    I have had the car for about 3 years and its never missed a beat. However I have to go to Australia for work, and have been working in Singapore for the last year so the car has been under cover since the Tax ran out. However it gets started and driven up and down the drive every month by my Dad since then. I traded in my old Galant (this was my 3rd) at the Evo place in Dunfermline (can't remember the name sorry) . I paid £3250 for it.

    Its the Car of the Year Edition (COTY) (I haven't seen many) so has black leather seats and the wooden trim interior, window wind deflectors, tinted windows etc, its standard, everything works. It had a full service using all the right oils and plugs (£350) from Camskill, and AYC fluid change from Mitsubishi dealership just before the tax ran out. It also had new disks and green stuff pads all around, it's also got a fancy air filter (I don't know the name sorry, but looks cool). I'll be sad to see it go but hope to get another on my return in 2014. It's better that it goes to good home than sit there.

    Modifications.
    Air filter, other than that its stock. However I think it's been De-restricted.

    Other information.
    Other info - I'm back in the UK until April 2013. Thanks for reading.

    Bad bits
    It needs the front bearings changing I bought them from Camskill but didn't get the chance to fit them before I left cost £503 so they are included in the price just need fitting. The exhaust is blowing mid back. The little part on the front spoiler has come (as they do) off but I have it just needs sticking back on. Other than that its a car of its age, no scratches or dents. The front speakers have popped, I have new ones in the box that you can have, also the stereo is new Kenwood. It hasn't got a jack. It has four new Firestone tyres I did about 200 miles on them.

    That would be a typo. 1998 more like. Nice COTY and good luck with the sale.

    2009 Ford Mondeo : 2.2TDCi, 4 wheels, some plastics, some metal and some seats

    Cheers Atik, did I not put 1998? I take it that was the year of the COTY, I'm not an aficionado that's for sure, but we all had to learn somewhere. Already been called a moron on my first reply - lol, which is rather ironic considering what I do for a living. Thanks for the support, also is the price ok for what I'm selling as I'm running blind here? Also are the COTY rare, I'm only going from what I've seen on the road up here in the highlands. All I know is I will miss it when it's gone.

    The COTY will be a 1997/98 car and is a special edition so yep, its rarer than the usual PFL cars. Namely the special paint and black leather interior make it different.

    Price is fair for a decent condition car of this age. Newer cars may command slightly more, but its a relatively early PFL and the stock ones can be had very cheap these days.

    I've changed the year for you.

    Interestingly, your car was first registered in the UK in 2008 anyway, so maybe that's where the year came from initially?

    COTYs only available in white - which may put off quite a few prospective buyers.

    Hi Stevie, please tell us a bit more about the Clio? the last time I drove a 182 was when I had an Abbott Saab 9000 Areo, which was some straight line car, but didn't go around bends, and had wooden brakes. However I remember the Clio was fun, if a little sparse on the horses. All the best - Richard.
