I think I dropped a GOOLEY with my Suzuki Alto

Having acquired a little gem of a suzuki alto in my haste to see the condition of the vehicle, I forgot to film it.
When the vehicle landed directly from its mot test, the vehicle was green with mould.
This little car has been tucked away in a garage for many years, it is 17 years old with only 10,000 genuine miles on the clock.
I am now the 3rd owner and I think is is only right that I bring this little beauty back to life.
These hidden gems don’t turn up every day.

Wow that's clean, my exhaust rotted when I seldom drove for a year..My 2002 swift got to 190k before the head gasket and efe module went, driving snow and Sub zero temperatures usually made something break. Sat in garage as gaskets are expensive efes are near impossible to get. Also runs bad on e10 fuel, and 97 super unleaded stresses the engine.
Over 13 years it had:-
Synthetic 10w50 +Wynn's supercharge
Lots of wheel bearing,
2 radiators,
gearbox(snow again),
alternator ,
3 or 4 batteries.
2 back boxes,
middle box,
Front cat studs welded back on
set of front springs,
and shocks.
central locking controller ,
ignition barrel,
Then immediatly after ignition switch ,
both sils done twice.
wing mirror.
Driver exterior door handle,
driver interior handle twice..
Suzuki recall on front control arms .
Break drums and a few shoes
Lots of disks and pads.
A new break line
Handbrake cables .
And the driver's seat looks like it was eaten by the cookie monster.as does the carpet in that area.

Bloody hell that's dedication, you must like that car. When you have that connection, nothing gets in the way.
Thank you for watching my video and commenting, I do hope your present day motoring is less stressful.

@@regbirmingham624 I was more not keen on the modern offerings.
Now driving a Vauxhall that barely fits in the garage, not much headroom for jacking it up. Plenty of character in the electrical system.

perfect runabout how much did you pay

[@regbirmingham624]

As a family friend the price reflected that, it was a little strange when they reduced the price bellow what I offered.
I firmly believe that it would be almost impossible to find a similar car of this year with that mileage, but if you did the price would be a lottery.
thank you for watching and commenting on my video.
