General Emmas Multipla Mission

Hey Emm,
I guess its worth checking that its had the front springs replaced, as this seems a common problem, along with the little things like the electric mirrors working correctly. If the front tyres aren't brand new it'd be worth trying to haggle for a new set, ours eats them at an alarming rate! The electric windows on ours have a nasty habit of going up and down very slowly, so I'd be looking out for that too.

When we got ours we noticed alot of the multiplas had paint damage on the edges of the doors where folks had forgotten how wide the car is and how large the doors are, so might be worth a quick check.


Other than that, a good test drive and check the smile on your face when you get back to the garage, always a good indication!

Brillient reply thankyou thank you thank you!!!
 
Just back from a test sit in a Multipla. I say sit because I couldn't drive it coz there wasn't enough room for this 6'7" fella even though I drive a punto. Disapointed isn't the word. Might have to have a look for an Idea instead.
 
UPDATE
Getting nervous/excited now..2days and 12hours left on the auction for my Seicento Turbo!, hope it sells, sooner it does sooner i get my Multi:slayer:

Funny, Im 6'6" (with an inside leg of 35")and there acres of space in mine.
Was the seat not fully back? Or even at the max height perhaps?
 
Head room.

The seats were electric and lowered a far as they'd go. I tried reclining the seat more but I was able to look out of the rear passenger windows when my head wasn't touching the roof, the also made the wheel too far away.

There's more room in an Idea.
 
That's the trouble with ebay - people expect bargains, not quality. (n)

Dont know what my next move will be, think i will try the Max Power lot, stupid thing to ask in a Multipla section but..has anyone got a copy they could give me i really dont want to go and buy one:eek:!
Failing that i will fund the Multipla buy some other way and the SeiT can budge up in the garage to make room
 
EEK!!!!:eek::eek::eek::eek: this is the one that was in classified on here isnt it?!!?

He seems to be holding out. (n)

No bids yet, and Emm hasn't been back on since.

Im ere;) Not had a proper discussion yet, he just got back from Uno stuff, i was trying to listen to Unoings then i interupted and told him excitedly that ive found 'the one' :D i was bouncing around like a child lol!
Theres a few things against it tbh, distance, will it be all it seems, too far to view then return Multiless and then thers the large matter of finding the funds, without the sale of the Turbo it most probs wont happen(n)
 
The only bad things I'd say about my Multi is the stereo is utter junk and the dashboard warning sensor thingy is awful sensitive to any tiny glitches making you think the car's about to fall to bits when it's really fine :eek: Good luck with the hunt for a Multi, my wife hated the look of it at first but as soon as she drove it she wanted one (y)
 
Sorry to steal the thread emm, but we are on the lookout for a multipla as well,

We just sold our troublesome synergie, what a pile of french )!_£ ,a few weeks ago i bought a 2001 punto for my g.f what a nice little car, so i started looking at alternative mpv's ,i came across the multi, and wanted one, 6 seats, all 3 point belts , great boot space, just need to test drive one,

as for the alloys, if you keep the same inch wheel and depth, you should be ok, as i am also looking down the modification road..

Good luck,

Martin,
 
I don't know about this emm. £3500.00 and the reserve not yet met? Also, pulls in the upholstery and cracked paint in the door! Once the fun of the purchase has gone and the car is on the driveway, these things would probably bug you!

The cam service will also be due in 10K, doesn't say if its been done or not, though if they have moved away then I doubt it! Nor, does it say anything about service history (i think?)

Nice car, no doubt, but depends on the reserve price and the service history.....(y)
