I'm selling my Antracite TF - it's a 52 plate and has only done 49k.
I bought it to break for the greandine interior, but it seemed a shame to break it given the condition/mileage. I've fixed all the little things (and a few big) which would have been on my to-do list if I was keeping it:
Replaced Clutch Slave Cylinder Seals (and rebled)
Service: Cambelt, Water Pump, Thermostat, Oil, Oil Filter, Air Filter, Alternator Belt, Spark Plugs
Replaced Interior Heater Pipes (which had corroded and were leaking into interior)
Swapped dashboard/interior plastics for my black one and dried out carpets/replaced underlay
Drivers side seat bolster has been professionally repaired
Re-aligned windows and hood
Fitted snorkel (to prevent wet passenger footwells!, but you could run one of the servo bracing brackets which are available around various forums.)
Key points::
135PS engine
Manual Gearbox
Good condition roof - no rips/tears, rear window is slightly misty, although I've bought some screen polish to try on it.
Half Leather/Red Alcantara interior.
ABS
Spare wheel
Electric Windows/Mirrors
Kenwood Face of CD/MP3/Radio/USB with 6 CD Changer in boot
MOT until October 2013
Tax until September 2013
Plenty of service history
An ideal summer car (although I use my 160 all year around!)
£1500 ono

I am not in the market for one, but if I was, I'd be all over it like a rash. Looks worth every penny of the asking price.
Ain't it funny, how time slips away...?

I'm in Tebworth which is between Toddington and Leighton Buzzard, so not too far from Northampton.
There's probably more I've forgotten to add to the description (like 2x fobs/keys) which are things I take for granted!

They're local for now - they're from Leighton Buzzard, but moving to Cornwall later in the summer...

They'll never be local in Cornwall until they've lived here for thousands of years and have bred with their kith and kin.
