2000 Ford Festiva 1.3l (manual, hatchback)
Perfect run-around or learners car for driving manual. Only selling because I am going electric.
The Festiva has a brand new timing belt and WOF, a good battery, drives nicely and is very economical on petrol. Odometer 260xxx, WOF until March 2022, REG until August 2021. Interior is clean&tidy except for a few scratches. Good sound system and radio, air bag, USB charging ports. Back seats fold down making a lot of space for transporting bigger items. As you can see in the photos, the exterior has a couple of scratches, dents and a bit of paint stain, otherwise fine.
All in all a simple and well-used but very trusty and capable little car.
You are welcome to view in Longburn - Palmerston North, contact me on 0274978194.
If you cannot come out to Longburn I could bring the car to you anywhere in Palmy.
Could not upload more pictures on here, so please ask if you want more.
What word sums up 2024, neighbours?
If 2020 was the year of lockdowns, banana bread, and WFH (work from home)....
In one word, how would you define 2024?
We're excited to see what you come up with!
⚠️ DOGS DIE IN HOT CARS. If you love them, don't leave them. ⚠️
It's a message we share time and time again, and this year, we're calling on you to help us spread that message further.
Did you know that calls to SPCA about dogs left inside hot cars made up a whopping 11% of all welfare calls last summer? This is a completely preventable issue, and one which is causing hundreds of dogs (often loved pets) to suffer.
Here are some quick facts to share with the dog owners in your life:
👉 The temperature inside a car can heat to over 50°C in less than 15 minutes.
👉 Parking in the shade and cracking windows does little to help on a warm day. Dogs rely on panting to keep cool, which they can't do in a hot car.
👉 This puts dogs at a high risk of heatstroke - a serious condition for dogs, with a mortality rate between 39%-50%.
👉 It is an offence under the Animal Welfare Act to leave a dog in a hot vehicle if they are showing signs of heat stress. You can be fined, and prosecuted.
SPCA has created downloadable resources to help you spread the message even further. Posters, a flyer, and a social media tile can be downloaded from our website here: www.spca.nz...
We encourage you to use these - and ask your local businesses to display the posters if they can. Flyers can be kept in your car and handed out as needed.
This is a community problem, and one we cannot solve alone. Help us to prevent more tragedies this summer by sharing this post.
On behalf of the animals - thank you ❤️
