Three more years and it's road tax exempt. Oh, but you don't live in the UK, never mind, it probably won't last three years.Dick wrote: ↑Tue Jan 05, 2021 6:03 pmThis is so tempting

Re: breakdown truck
Eh? Even if the free VED thing is still around when the car is old enough to qualify, it's a mere thirty years of age so there are eleven years between that Micra and free VED & MOT exempt status, which comes in the 41st year.GHT wrote: ↑..Three more years and it's road tax exempt.

K10s can last well, especially compared to equivalent European cars of the era, but a few more images would be good as the current ones suggest that either the car has the possible - if not always experienced - Jatco CVT overheating and belt slipping issues, though they managed to reverse it in so possibly that's not it, or it doesn't move at all. Either way, I would wonder how it's not been pulled out for better access.
I love a CVT and it's still far easier to find a working Jatco one in a Micra (or K series Metro) than it is to find one in a completely knackered state, but would I travel (assuming no tier five countrywide, disease-related restrictions in place by then, obviously) all the way to Essex for a car that didn't, at the very least, come more positively portrayed in the photos? No. That would be a daftness too far! Yet strangely, I'm comfortable with buying directly from Japanese auctions. Irrational behaviour? Nope, it's not as big a gamble as a night in a casino and you get a car at the end of the process, rather than a debt and a sweaty shirt.
