UP FOR SALE IS A NICE CHEVROLET METRO. I BOUGHT THIS FOR MY DAUGHTER WHO IS IN COLLEGE & RECENTLY ACQUIRED HER LEARNER'S PERMIT & WILL SOON HAVE HER DRIVER'S LICENSE. SHE THINKS SHE'S TOO COOL FOR THIS CAR, BUT IT BEING HER 1ST CAR, I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE GOOD FOR HER TO BANG AROUND IN TIL SHE WAS A SOMEWHAT MASTERFUL DRIVER BEFORE I BOUGHT HER WHAT SHE WANTED, WHICH IS A MERCEDES BENZ SLK CONVERTIBLE. SO WITH THAT SAID, & HER BEING A DADD'YS GIRL & LOVED BY ME VERY MUCH, I CAN'T SAY NO TO HER HARDLY EVER, SO, I AM SELLING HER CAR & TRY & GET HER SOMETHING COOLER FOR HER, BUT PROBABLY NOT THE BENZ. NOW FOR THE SKINNY ON THE CAR. I BOUGHT IT LOCALLY HERE IN ARKANSAS BACK IN JANUARY OF 2012 & HAVE DRIVEN APPROXIMATELY 1,000 MILES GIVE OR TAKE A FEW. IT IS REGISTERED & INSURED & HAS A CLEAN & CLEAR TITLE. IT HAS DRIVEN GREAT EVER SINCE I GOT THE CAR. IT HAS NEVER FAILED TO START, NOT EVEN AFTER SITTING FOR ABOUT 10 DAYS. IT STARTS, RUNS, DRIVES, SHIFTS, ETC., LIKE IT IS SUPPOSE TO. IT HAS A SUPRISINGLY STRONG POWERFUL ENGINE. IT DOES SMOKE WHEN YOU FIRST START IT, BUT IT FADES AS YOU DRIVE IT. THERE IS A 178,691 MILES ON IT RIGHT NOW & WILL PROBABLY CHANGE AS I DO DRIVE IT EVERY NOW & THEN. AS YOU CAN SEE IN THE PICS, THE SERVICE ENGINE SOON LIGHT IS ON. I HAVE HAD THAT CHECKED, & IT SHOWS AN O2 SENSOR, BUT THE LIGHT COMES ON FOR A WHILE & IF I DON'T DRIVE IT FOR A FEW DAYS THEN THE LIGHT TURNS OFF, THEN COMES BACK ON AFTER DRIVING FOR A WHILE. I GUESS BECAUSE IT DOES SMOKE, IT TRIPS THE O2 SENSOR PAST THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER TO MAKE THE LIGHT COME ON, BUT IT DOES NOT AFFECT THE RUNNING OF THE CAR. I GOT 41.1 MPG ON THE HWY., & ALMOST 30 MPG RUNNING A PAPER ROUTE & DRIVING IN TOWN. I HAVE DRIVEN IT ON MY ROUTE 3 TIMES WHICH IS 45 MILES LONG WITH ALMOST 500 DELIVERIES, WHICH IS HARD ON ANY VEHICLE WITH ALL THE STARTING & STOPPING THAT MANY TIMES IN A FEW HOURS, BUT IT DONE FANTASTIC. IT GAVE ME NO PROBLEMS!!! IT DID HAVE OIL LEAKING FROM IT WHEN I BOUGHT IT, SO I TOOK IT TO MY MECHANIC TO REPLACE THE OIL PAN GASKET, BUT AS HE WAS INSPECTING IT, HE FOUND THAT MOST OF THE BOLTS WERE LOOSE, & HE TIGHTENED THEM & IT SEEMS LIKE THAT WAS WHY IT WAS LEAKING, AS YOU CAN SEE THERE IS NO FRESH OIL IN THE PICS. I HAD IT SERVICED & NEW ALTERNATOR BELT PUT ON THAT TIME ALSO. I FOUND THAT THE A/C COMPRESSOR BEARINGS WERE BAD & THAT IS WHY THAT BELT WAS NOT ON, SO I BOUGHT A REMANUFACTERD A/C COMPRESSOR FOR IT, BUT HAVE NOT INSTALLED IT. IF SOMEONE DOES THE BUY IT NOW FEATURE OR THE CAR SELLS FOR MORE THAN THAT, THEN I WILL GIVE THE COMPRESSOR WITH THE CAR. I ALSO BOUGHT 4 BRAND NEW TIRES FROM SEARS & HAD THE CAR ALIGNED AT THE SAME TIME!!!!!!!!!!! THE OWNER'S MANUAL IS IN THE GLOVE BOX & I HAVE RECEIPTS FOR MOST EVERYTHING I HAVE DONE & BOUGHT FOR THE CAR. THE SPARE(DONUT) IS IN THE TRUNK WITH THE JACK & LUG WRENCH, BUT NOT THE HANDLE TO THE JACK. I JUST USED A SCREW DRIVER TO LIFT THE CAR UP WITH THE JACK & IT WORKED JUST FINE, I HAD NO PROBLEMS DOING THAT. THE INTERIOR IS IN GOOD CONDITION(DIRTY), AS I HAVE NOT HAD IT DETAILED & THE SKIN TO THE HEADLINER IS GONE BUT THE BACKING IS STILL THERE, SO IT WILL NEED A NEW HEADLINER. THE DASH IS IN TACT & IS NOT CRACKED. THE LAST OWNER HAD AN AFTERMARKET CD PLAYER IN IT & REMOVED IT BEFORE I BOUGHT IT, SO THERE IS NO RADIO, BUT THE WIRING HARNESS FOR THE RADIO IS IN THE GLOVE BOX. IT DOES NOT LOOK LIKE HE BROKE ANYTHING REMOVING THE CD PLAYER. AS YOU CAN SEE IN THE PICS THE BODY IS IN FAIRLY GOOD CONDITION. THERE ARE SOME ROCK CHIPS ON THE HOOD & A SCRATCH THAT GOES WIDTH WAYS ACROSS IT. THERE IS ALSO A SCRATCH ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE ON THE REAR FROM THE BACK OF THE REAR DOOR ACROSS THE GAS CAP TO THE REAR QUARTER(COSMETIC). BOTH OUTSIDE MIRRORS WERE BROKEN, & THE PASSENGER SIDE WAS TRIED TO HAVE BEEN GLUED ON WITH LIQUID NAILS OR SOME OTHER ADHEASIVE LIKE THAT. I HAVE NOT TRIED TO REMOVE THE ADHEASIVE BUT I HAVE INSTALLED 2 NEW OUTSIDE MIRRORS. I THOUGHT THERE WERE NO FLOOR MATS, BUT THERE APPEARS TO BE 1 ON THE PASSENGER FRONT SIDE. I BELIEVE I HAVE DESCRIBED THE VEHICLE TO THE BEST OF MY ABILITY SO THAT THERE IS NOTHING HIDDEN FROM THE PROSPECTIVE BIDDERS. KEEP IN MIND THIS IS A USED CAR & IS NOT PERFECT!!!!! BUT IT IS A DECENT, RELIABLE, GAS SAVING FORM OF TRANSPORTATION & I WOULD NOT HESITATE TO DRIVE THIS CAR ANYWHERE. YOU CAN HAVE THE CAR INSPECTED IF YOU WANT, JUST EMAIL ME YOUR PHONE# & WE CAN SET UP A GOOD TIME FOR THAT. THERE IS NO WARRANTY ON THIS CAR EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED & IS BEING SOLD AS IS/ WHERE IS. IT IS THE RESPONSIBLITY OF THE WINNING BIDDER TO PICK UP OR SHIP THE CAR. I WILL TRY & HELP EVERY WAY I CAN TO MAKE IT AS SMOOTH OF A TRANSACTION AS POSSIBLE. THE WINNING BIDDER WILL NEED TO MAKE A NON-REFUNDABLE DEPOSIT OF $500 IMMEDIATLEY UPON CONFIRMATION OF BEING THE WINNING BIDDER!!!!! IF YOU HAVE NEGATIVE OR A 0 RATING OF FEEDBACK YOU NEED TO CONTACT ME PRIOR TO BIDDING AS ALL BIDDERS WITH RATINGS LIKE THAT, THEIR BIDS WILL BE CANCELLED!!!!!!!!!!!! I AM AN HONEST BUYER & SELLER & MAKE VERY QUICK TRANSACTIONS & I EXPECT THE SAME!!!!!!!! I RESERVE THE RIGHT TO END THE AUCTION EARLY AS IT IS FOR SLE LOCALLY ALSO!!!!!! LOW RESERVE!!! THANK YOU & GOOD LUCK ON YOUR BIDS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
