[For Sale] Vauxhall Meriva 1.6 Semi Auto
2004 04 Vauxhall Meriva Enjoy 1.6 Semi Auto.
Metallic Blue.
64000 Miles.
Remote Central Locking.
Electric Front Windows.
Electric Heated Mirrors.
Air Conditioning.
Power Steering.
CD/Radio.
Multi Function Steering Wheel.
Fold Out Picnic Tables.
MOT January 2022.
Full Service History Up To 49000 Miles.
Gearbox repairs completed 31/3/21. Drove the Meriva over 30 miles home. Didn't miss a beat. Have done a fresh coolant change myself today as well.
I am a tinkerer when I get bored. I didn't like the red rear lights, so I have now fitted genuine Meriva VXR rear lights, and thought the reverse lights were dull on both the original lights and these, so now they have the equivalent of 100watt LED bulbs fitted so you have what I would say is almost daylight behind you when reversing Also the front sidelight bulbs were coming to the end of there life, so I have fitted white LED bulbs in instead. I have added pictures below.
It is in extremely good condition. Drives really well. Very Spacious 5 seater family car.
I am asking £1795 ono for it. I have it advertised in other places and don't always manage to keep up with dropping the prices in all the places I have things listed, so if you see it cheaper, or I have it advertised cheaper and you don't see that ad, I will be honest and let you know.
I am not in any hurry to sell this car, it has grown on me, and is a handy MPV to have around. So will be sad to see it go when it does. However I now have 5 cars to myself, so 2 or 3 really do need to go at some point. (I also have an 08 Agila for sale on another listing).
Collection from Tunbridge Wells, Kent.

I am in the dog house for getting it. Bought this morning And now won't be back Thursday as I have instructed a garage to carry out a repair I was going to do so I can sell it knowing it is going to be done properly. New brushes are being fitted to the gearbox actuator. But I have been told I have to up my game if I want my Freelander back from my partner. Apparently this didn't do it

I popped back to my friends today, have driven the car to the garage now for the gearbox actuator brushes to be replaced, the garage actually think I should get the car back Thursday And then I will give it a full valet. I was wrong about the mileage, it was lower than I first advertised. Advert corrected as of 10 minutes after this reply.

More pictures added as I got bored, And now it has VXR Meriva rear lights, LED reverse and front side light bulbs. No more tinkering is planned though. Price is still the same as I have grown to like this car.

The Meriva was too nice to sell, decided to keep it after my partner decided he liked it. So selling my Freelander as I replaced the Agila with a Golf GTi. There's a head for those who TRY to keep up with my car collection So ultimately will actually be right back where I started until the Freelander sells
I knew as soon as I saw this had gone "sold" you'd have changed your mind again .
