Here I have for sale my lovely Vauxhall Astra LS 8V 1.6 Automatic, 1999 T Reg.

I've owned her for 3 years and she has been the most amazingly reliable beast you can imagine. I've looked after her really well and cared for her a heck of a lot. Just recently had new shock absorvers in for the MOT, which expires Oct 13th 2010. I will put 6 months tax on her when you come and buy her. At the moment she is SORN, and I have been storing her in my private office car park. She has a new battery, too. She is very comfy and clean, and nice and shiny after a coat of polish.

So, let me tell you a bit more about her. I have used her for only half the year for the last couple of years, keeping her SORN in the summer while I drive my camper van. I used her to drive around the local area, being a bit of a gentleman bookdealer, but closed the business at the beginning of last year. Since then, haven't really used her that much.

I've made sure that she has been serviced reguarly, and I have tons of service history for her, going way back to previous owners. Here's what she's got:

Sun roof (manual)

Electric windows at the front, manual at the back.

Stereo system

New shock absorbers

Automatic gearbox that is a pleasure to drive

Solid reliable engine

Shiny paintwork. Looks a beauty.

Very clean inside. I'm a non-smoker, and so was the woman I bought it from.

Very smooth drive.

Power Steering.

The bodywork does have one or two dings, one over the back nearside wheel arch, and one on the nearside door. There is a slight scrape to the off side wing mirror, and a little scratch to the off side light cluster. But all in all, she's pretty good.

The mileage is a genuine 73,000 miles. There's plenty more left in her yet. She's responsive and reliable, without being stupid on petrol.

As I say, I will put six months' tax on her when you buy.

You're welcome to call me to give her a drive around the car park. I'm in Havant, near Portsmouth, postcode: PO9 2NP.

I expect you to pay a deposit by Paypal on the day you buy. Will accept the rest in face-to-face payment.

Can arrange delivery, if you pay for the tax and petrol beforehand - and my time, on long trips. Call Matt on 07985 053777.

Thanks for your interest. I've put loads of photos below for you!
