Hi
I bought another car and I need to get rid of my Hyundai excel 1996. It has been fine the last few years except it runs sluggishly. About a week ago the gears started to give me trouble. They stick going into first and third sort of get stuck making it quite dangerous to drive. I never did end up taking it to the mechanic to see what the problem was and what it would cost to fix it. Does anyone have any ideas?? Anyway I figured after nearly 18 years & 147,000 km it was time to move on and upgrade.
The car yard where I bought my new car said they wouldn't do a trade in as it's not worth anything and they recommended selling it privately. Ive been looking at gum tree at similar cars. Mine has done a lot less km but I'm starting to think I'm not even going to bother to try to sell it privately as I'd be lucky to make $200 I think. The only thing mechanically wrong with it is the gears. The rest is all cosmetic (looking very worn out) and the air con doesn't work, no passenger side lock.
I think my best bet is ringing cash for cars. They'll give me cash
and use the car for spare parts. At least it's cheaper than forking out $120 for a tow truck to get it crushed.
But just out of curiosity how much would it cost for a new gear box or fluid??
Anyway I'll give cash for cars a call
Thanks
