    Copenistas,

    Having agonized for months but have bowed to the inevitable. I can't afford to run 3 cars anymore and the little smasher has to go.

    I won't bore you with the spec. (silver/red leather)

    I'm the second owner and the car has covered 46000 miles since being born in 2003 (53 plate).

    No problems I'm aware of other than two tyres which keep slowly deflating due to the alloys being corroded but these will be refurbished before sale.

    £2100 is the starting price if anyone is interested before it is launched on the open market.

    We are in the Loughborough area.

    Ned

    Copen, no other car.
    Oh no, that's a real shame (I know what you mean about low interest rates but maybe that's for some other forum) We'll miss you Colin, your postings have been a great contribution - useful, interesting and appreciated :clap:

    On another subject. I'm prepping for the MOT and am curious about the brake shoes as they seem to have a 'step' in them. Usually the pads are smaller than the discs and the 'step' is worn into the disk not the pad. Have I got the right pads ? Do these ones require replacement ?
