BUMP for a very honest seller. I like people like this and would probably take the car off you, but you live so far away....
GL with the sale, bro.

FS: A Real Challenge - 1995 Neon Sport 4dr *w/ PICS* NOW $SOLD!!
SOLD locally to a brave mechanic willing to take on the challenge!
Why is it a challenge? Cause it's a piece of junk. Just got another car so this one has to go so I can pay for the newer (actually, a 1993 model, so older) car. Anyway, here's the rundown:
1995 Chrysler Neon Sport Rebuilt
Dark Green
4 Doors
Auto Transmission
A/C
Power Mirrors (actually, only the driver side one works)
2.0L SOHC Engine
~149,000km
Air Care good till Feb 2006
Here's what wrong with it:
-No air bags (I did mention it was a rebuilt. I was told a pole fell on it.
)
-Rear drums and brake pads (about $80-90 DIY)
-Front reinforcement bar (about $30 DIY)
-Front bumper has a hole in it (I can get a refurbed one for about $90)
-CD player doesn't work but the radio does. Probably just needs cleaning.
-2 light bumps (rear passenger side door and driver door) from stupid hit & runs in a parking lot!
-Driver side headlight housing (guessinig about $30-70 for a used one)
-A hole between the handle and the door (driver side) since some bugger tried to break in. Pretty pathetic attempt.
Here's the biggie:
It burns gas more than it should. Something like only 190km/40litres. Changed the front O2 sensor and catilitic (sp?) converter Feb 2004. Fine, it was ok. Aug 2004, noticed it burning more gas. Changed the back O2 sensor, no change. Changed spark plugs, air filter, oil around March/April 2005. No change. Can't figure the thing out. The O2 sensors and the cat are probably ok.
Edit: Also important - As with most (if not all) 1995 Neons, the head gasket leaks. Now I didn't know that (I didn't and still don't know much about cars) until a little while after I bought the car.
Anyway, it's $1200-->$1100-->$1000-->$900-->$750 OBO
I'm in Vancouver. Will update with real pics later (or you could just come by and kick the tires
) and some of the error codes.
**UPDATE** - Pictures!!
Here's the picture of the front. Yes with that small hole in the front bumper that's sagging because of the damaged reinforcement bar.

Interior Shot

The dash with the odometre.

The CD player/radio. I do have the cigarette lighter in the house.

The trunk is only big enough for one adult or two children. Still not bad. Yes, it still has the spare tire in there.

It's OBO so make me an offer!Last edited by Haz; Jun 12th, 2006 at 03:23 PM.

Aug 27th, 2005 01:06 AM #3Thanks! It would probably cost $1200 in gas just to drive it to your place.
