Two weeks ago my brother needed to get rid of his 2006 mazda 3 1.6 - we buy any car £150 less £50 fee why the heck don't they just say £100 . He would have to deliver to we buy any carMazdas back.. Good and bad news.
It cost me nothing...yay.
They've also done nothing...Boo.
Whine may be a wheelbearing starting to go but it's not far enough gone that they want to start replacing things as apparently it's not immediately obvious. So been told keep using it's alreet. When it gets worse bring it back...
The knock, Oh boy, well all they can see is the manicat is starting to deteriorate with age. This is a huge bit of metal on the back the engine running back into the transmission tunnel. Replacing it also requires two sensors replaced as well. Let's just say the quote for replacing that runs to 60% of what it's worth.
I think it's officially now a beater, I've said for long time I've said if it died tomorrow it doesn't owe me any money..if I start lashing money at it it's going to, the condition of the floors etc doesn't warrant keeping it mechanically A1. Think we'll be settling for "moves and is legal" from this point out.
We shall see how long she lasts..or it might be getting we buy any car'd .
I had already found online a collection company that would pay £226
He went for the £226
and took my advice to notify dvla of sale online NOT by post.
