Ben Long Posted June 3, 2004 Share Posted June 3, 2004 As my Nan can sadly no longer drive I am having her car and am therefore selling my trusty, reliable tin top, which serves as a very nice little runaround when I'm not driving the R300 It is in good condition, and used to be my Grandad's. This is a great car for anyone looking for a cheap, reliable runaround / first time car / wet weather car. As follows: - Seat Ibiza Crono (System Porsche ) 1989 'F' Reg'd 5 Speed Metallic Black/Ash Approximately 50,000 miles from new Very reliable 10 Months Tax MOT Until November (with every confidence that it will pass next MOT with flying colours) £195 Contact Ben on: - 07769 68 58 58 ben.long@vodafone.net Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Archie Procter Posted June 3, 2004 Share Posted June 3, 2004 Ben, is it the model with the quality 'stalkless' indicators and if I remember rightly it's one of the first cars to have a single wiper blade? Pretty revolutionary stuff back in 1989. My mate used to have one of these, he had a special talent for breaking cars and somehow managed to make it leak, lose the wiper blade on the M1 and only be able to tune the radio to one station - atlantic 252 I think. We wondered whether it was the Seat but then he got an XR2 which are normally pretty sturdy and he managed to do similar to that too... Unfortunately I don't need a car (though I am quite tempted for the nostalgia factor) and the missus is quite happy with her Renault Clio but from what I remember these are great little cars (I remember being passed at 115mph on the M5 by my mate's) and well worth £195 of anyone's money. Andrew PS. His car had 'System Porsche' down the doors - I had another mate who made signs for a living and one night we replaced these stickers with very similar ones saying 'System Flymo'. He wasn't amused... 😬 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alias Posted June 3, 2004 Share Posted June 3, 2004 Not sure about the "1st car to have a single wiper blade" My parents Citroen CX had a single wiper blade. It was R reg (1976)! One car - 1400 Supersport with 6 gears and clamshell wings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben Long Posted June 4, 2004 Author Share Posted June 4, 2004 Andrew, Indeed, single wiper and stalkless indicator switches are 'revolutionary' features of this fine car, and if lifting the bonnet on a 7 is not enough to get passers by dribbling, then exposing 'System Porsche' on the rocker cover of the Seat will have them salivating like a river 😬 Thanks for the comments. I have priced it to sell. I'm off to Le Mans on Tuesday, so any interested parties should get in quick Feel free to call or email. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
