Had my car since weds... but....

#1: Had my car since weds... but.... Author: 00budham00, Location: Ips PostPosted: Sun Dec 26, 2010 10:26 am

I might sell it.

Its moonstone blue, and I thought it was going to be silver. I just dont think I like the colour enough.

So..... Im thinking about selling it and buying another colour one instead, I think i'd rather Dark blue, or Black.

what do you think?

if i were you i would keep the one you have, save up, and buy a better or newer car in 6 months or so, so however long it takes you to save up, afterall you only see the colour when you arent driving it Razz

Did you not view the car before you bought it?

Moonstone ?

IMHO it's one of the best colours for the 206 there is. Very Happy

My dads 406 was moonstone blue, its a good colour and I dont think its girly either

Yes it was a xmas prezzie. It says sliver, looked silver in pic.

But its a bluey silver colour. I've been told its moonstone blue.

Thing is there's a tear in back seat, and there's a dent in rear panel next to boot, but otherwise its a nice car.
Oh and the digital display thing don't work.

I have someone coming to look at dents tomorrow 2 tell me how much, and suppose it depends on that.

Since making this post, my bf has washed the car, and I kinda like it again. Lol.

Just keep it for a bit, its a good colour, especially in summer when it stays quite cool Razz gotta keep it clean and shiny or itll start looking a bit grim Very Happy

It might help if I could drive about in it, but its just sat there at the moment as cant afford to insure it till I get paid at end of this month too lol.

Well if your opinion of your car can change because its been washed, then I really think you need to consider your next car long and hard before rushing into making a decision. Sounds like you easily change your mind...

#22: Re: Had my car since weds... but.... Author: 00budham00, Location: Ips PostPosted: Mon Dec 27, 2010 5:09 am

Yeah I'm not totally decided yet. If I like it or not, and I didn't buy it!

Surely the colour doesn't make that much difference to your opinion of the car? I quiet like the moonstone blue!! I guess that teaches you to go and actually look at the car, I'm sure you will learn to love it Smile

Yeh the moonstone blue is a nice colour. If I didnt find my aegean I would have bought one. They look very nice when colour coded etc!

Seat & digital display are easy / cheap fixes, plenty turn up on Ebay / on here / in scrapyards.

The dent COULD be an easy / cheap fix to, no idea as we haven't seen a picture of said dent Laughing

Here is the worst dent does it look like it might be in a tricky place?

There are quite a few "tesco dings" down the side also, but not too worried about them as its a 10year old car, so expected a few of them.

Ask a SMART repair person / place if they can do anything with it.
