My damaged Micra at Pickles Auctions

Mon 20 Oct 2008 06:40:25 PM
The insuance company wrote off my micra undamaged pic here
http://www.micra.com.au/community/message.php?messageid=33477
It is at Auction at pickles.com.au in Perth this Wednesday.
RHF is in bad shape, but it still drives dead straight.
(I hit a Kangaroo). CVT had slight issues.
But if someone wanted it for the wheels and tyres and lowered springs it may go cheap.

Looked up the auction: http://tinyurl.com/5est9w

There's also a clean SLX up on pickles as well - no body damage but looks to be a stuffed CVT. Could go for really cheap! http://tinyurl.com/5krroe

And you just have to laugh at this: http://tinyurl.com/5er24y

Didn't seem to be any movement of the frame around the A pillar. Drivers door gap was still ok. Drove dead straight at all speeds.
But the radiator support panel and the inner guard are definately stuffed

What about the 1.5 Charade automatic? I see a lot of Charades around.
How long is the Micra CVT meant to last before major service, seems I've read a few with niggly problems under 150,000km?
