For Sale - Mk 3.5 1.8 Venture YD12 XNK - only 13,400miles. £8,500. Maroon pearlescent. York.
Great car with lots of extras. Read on.
I have finally given in and admitted I just don’t have time to take my MX5 out of the garage and will have to sell her.
Purchased from Nunns of Grimsby by the original owner in March 2012, sold back to Nunns in part exchange in 2018 when it was purchased by me. Both of us (Nunns were just a transitory owner) have kept her in a garage and rarely took her out. She has never been out in the rain in the time I have had her and the dealer said likewise for the previous owner. I believe that. She is in excellent condition. Full leather seats / trim. I have always run her on 97 octane fuel. Two keys (one needs a new battery).
On purchase, I took the car to MX5 City and had the wheel alignment checked and a general health check conducted. All fine. They also did a waxoyl underbody treatment, just to be belt and braces, although as stated above I have never taken her out in the rain.
She has a FSH – main dealer for all but the last one in March 2019, which was done by Blenk Engineering of York – a 5 star Good Garage scheme team. They are superb. The MOT expires in March 2020. There was one advisory on the 2019 MOT – perished original tyres – still with 5mm tread – testament to how little use she has had. I have since put on 4 x new Avon ZV7s to replace the old Bridgestones. Much better ride! They have had little use, just 2 brief trips. Otherwise 100% MOT history.
I had the gearbox and diff oils changed in May 2018, even though strictly speaking because of the low mileage they were not due. Ford Motorcraft Oil in the gearbox and Mobil One in the diff. I have also replaced the battery with a new Yuasa Battery. She has been kept trickle charged all the time when not in use with my CTEK charger.
Engine oil checked before every trip without exception. Always a tad above max. Never had to add oil in my time.
Comes with Auto Glym hood care kit – proofer and cleaner – elasticated protective hood cover and brand new space saver wheel and cover.
This car is in super nick and a bargain at the price considering all the work and extras. I live in York.
Please note you will not be permitted to drive the car, albeit I will happily take you for a trip out. I am confident with the condition of the car and all the extras that I can attain this price, so please come prepared to pay the asking price, subject to viewing / me driving you of course. Payment by Bank Transfer only please.
Interested? Please PM me.
Thanks.
