Selling my dads car as he's too ill to drive any more. It's 53 plate 1.8 CLUB with 90ish thou miles, no tax and only MOT until next month. Drives great, but it does have the dash lights on saying service needed ABS etc, these have always been on since he's had it sometimes they go off. He had it all checked and rest last year for the MOT which it passed, but they have since came back on. He's had the braked done last year and a service also. He only wants £500 as we just want it gone. It needs a good clean inside as he used to take the dog out in it (just the boot), but it will clean up as new and the bodywork is lovely condition also. No offers please, its a bargain at £500

The lights are now a fail on the MOT so if you want the ones which are irrelevant cleared and the ones which are relevant diagnosed I can sort it for £50

Ah okay, just offering. No need to be so defensive. As you have the equipment and the abs lights are on along with others you may struggle to offload this as abs can be a tricky thing. Good luck with the sale.

Seriously if you can sort the warning lights etc why not do it and command a better price if possible.Nobody wants to buy a car with known problems,usually too many unknown ones never mind unknown.Not sure that vintage (9 years) with that mileage will get much more but best of luck.

Good luck with the sale. You were asking for £50 rather than offering help. Money isn't the object here. Their car is worth that price all day in my opinion. I've not spent time to even clean it either. There is more to life than money, and time is more precious at the moment, than to spend it on a car to get a few hundred £ more. I certainly don't need the money and where my dad is going he won't. But £500 is the price he wants for now. No need for a discussion.

Its only an ABS and service light on. Now resetting them may work (certainly the service no doubt) but the abs could be a wheel sensor etc. STill an easy fix but suddenly the time goes up from a few mins to reset, to half a day to obtain and fit the part. I appreciate the car will sell far better, but pleanty of people can also fix cars and do so to make a few quid, and this they are welcome to. I have no spare time I wish to spend working on the car. Thanks for the advice anyway, even if it is designed to put buyers off...

You have completely misinterpreted my post. publicly giving me (and every potential buyer) your opinion, that it's not worth much more fixed, and insinuating there could be many more problems is always going to put buyers (daft ones that listen to daft people) off. If you're not interested in the car why babble on so everyone can see ?? If you had anything useful to say, which you obviously haven't, then a PM would be more suitable.

As u can imagine my head is up my arse over my dad, hence me not beings very polite to the daft comments. It is a steal at £500 and someone will be very happy. Thanks for your comments.

It was actually more directed at anyone who was thinking about buying the car and was put off by lights as I'm sure youre aware of the rip off prices garages charge. Sorry to hear about your dad but maybe consider when people are trying to help your sale.
