    96 Kia Sephia RS - $1,000 or trade

    For sale or trade!!!



    This is my 1996 Kia Sephia RS. It was involved in 2 small accidents. The car runs strong and has 106,xxx miles on it. My mother bought this car brand new in 1996. It's has a good 5 speed manual transmission in it, no signs of wear or tear. It doesn't slip or grind and shifts smooth. The motor is a 1.8l dohc Kia motors engine. It has had regular oil changes every 3,000 - 4,000 miles. My mom really took care of this car. I got it in July 2003 and wrecked it in October and I put maybe 10,000 miles on it. The car was involved in a wreck in either 1996 or 1997 while it was parked at my moms work. Someone backed into it. The guy had insurance so the whole rear of the car was repaired. Then I wrecked the car when a lady pulled out of her drive way without looking. The only damage that I know of is the drivers side fender, scratches on the bumper and headlight, a bent front drivers side axle and a bent rear passanger side axle. There is body damage under the rear passanger door but you can only see it if you look under the car and there is a dent in the trunk (see pictures) from where I backed into a pole. There is something broken off by the back tire. *Look in the last pic to the left, it's boxed in* The car starts and runs fine. I drove it home from the wreck (about 2 miles) and parked it. I haven't drove it since but it still starts and idles fine. The car is a base model, so no sun roof, no power windows/locks/steering, and no tilt. The car has a good title. I spray painted the bumpers with crome bumper spray but it didn't turn out good. The silver isn't shiney and it's blotchy but it could easily be re-done. The interior (dash board, console, door panels) are spray painted blue, white, and silver. They also didn't turn out good but it obviously doesn't affect the way the car runs. The back door panels aren't painted. The car is basicly bone stock under the hood. The rims are chrome 13inch pacer 5stars, one has a small chunk taken out of it but it doesn't seem to affect the tire or the ride. The moldings are custom made. The car doesn't have a stereo.

    $1,000 obo. I'm willing to trade this car. I'll consider any make or model. I'd prefer a Honda Accord, Civic, or CRX. They must be in fair condition and they must run and drive. I live in Western Kentucky so anyone close to that. You'd have to come pick the car up since the back passanger side axle is bent or broke. If you have any questions just let me know and I'll answer them as soon as possible. Thanks for looking.

    Also, you can run a carfax report. This vehicle qualifies for the CARFAX Buyback Guarantee. The vin number is KNAFA1257T5255349

    Tell you what, you give me the car, and $1,000 and we'll call it a deal. Dude, that thing isn't worth $0.05 in that shape. Get it fixed, and then MAYBE it'll be worth $1,000.

    the swoosh sticker is from my mom. she had that whole deal on there when ever she was driving it. i took it off when i got it. i don't think it's against the law to drive with the air bags like that... you'd have to cut them out though. our honda's don't have airbags so why should that Kia? The title is clear. On the carfax report it only shows up 1 accident (the one i had in oct.) and it considers the damage minimal. i know the car looks shitty and Kias are known to be shitty but I've never had any problems out of it. It only needs 2 axles and a rear-stabalizer arm and it'll drive again. I just don't have the money to fix it but if I get it I will definitly do it.

    actually the front axle is just bent but can be driven as it is. the back axle is the main problem so if you got that fixed for lets say 200-250 you'll be set.
