2000 Ford Festiva for sale
Sorry all - car has now been sold.
Ford Festiva 1.3 automatic in Red
136,000 Kms on Odometer
No WoF, (expired Jan 15th 2020) and Rego on hold - Car has done less than 300 Kms since last WoF as we started to sell it just prior to covid-19 hit - so the car is just sitting in the driveway, (battery dead so have replaced it with another battery).
Small grazes on bumpers as this was the car my daughter learned to drive with and eventually get her full license.
Seats are in great condition, (no tears etc).
Pro's - very easy to drive, fantastic turning circle and great gas economy. I have quite a lot of service history of the vehicle and the last WoF had wheel bearings replaced etc.
Con's - The fuel gauge is slightly faulty, i.e. the needle drops to "empty" just below 3/4's - even though you have 3/4's of a tank of fuel, (what my daughter did was fill the car up and reset the odometer - when she approached 200Kms - she'd refill the tank, which typically didn't cost much). You may need to check the windscreen squirter - When I replaced the dead battery, I checked the car, everything was good except the squirter.
A really neat first car - for learning to drive.
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
