Sorry, its not a TOYOTA! But it needs a new home. The engine is cactus. 5-speed manual gearbox, clutch & flywheel were all replaced maybe 14 months ago. Frot c.v's done 3 years ago, headlight switches etc recoed around that time too. Very good tyres, suspension, interior etc. Sony c.d player. Rego till novemeber.
All it needs is a replacement motor, shouldn't cost anymore than $1500 to put in.
I want $750 for the car.
Oh, the car is Red, no rust, a few minor bumps that are noticable when up really close, a few minor scrapes, it was a damn good car till she smoked me off

Got any pics? How many km's on the clock? How long will the engine last? BTW its not for me. My mate needs a run about car. And this could do the job. Would it last till the rego ran out? Thanks.

Got no pics right now, Im at Toowong, come and take a look. I work all day so if you come during the week it will have to be after 6pm. The engine probably wont last. Its good for 10-20 minute drives.
The engine problems: The radiator is fine, it works no probs. The thermo fan behind it is cactus. So is the water pump. Coolant is leaking out of the disintegrated water pump into the oil pan and other places so the fluid is mixing and going through the engine, it also has a massive leak, you have to refill the radiator before each trip.
Im not kiding about the motor but to have a good replacement installed will cost no more than $1500. I'd do it and keep the car but i dont got the cash. Its a great little run about.
If he has 3 grand he can have a darn good car for less with rego till november, the rego alone is worth a few hundred. The gearbox, clutch and flywheel cost $1400 from memory. The car has done a total of 250,000kms. If you aren't too far come and take a look. 38702447

Would it be possible to go to a wrecker and buy the parts that a leaking and then install them into the swift? So there isn't anything wrong with the internals? Would it be possible to come and have a look on sat? Because me and my mate work mon-fri and wont be able to come after 6pm on those days. Is it a 4 or 3 door?

You said that the radiator works fine but then u said the radiator has a massive leak and needs to be refilled after each trip? So is it good or bad? What other parts would need to be replaced?
