Couple of questions

First one, on cold start in the morning when I turn the key in the ignition and the car starts there is a grinding noise just after the car starts for a few seconds, only happens first thing in the morning, would this be the starter jamming or what? And any easy fix?

Second question, there is a 2002 1.4 near me for sale, 38k, looks good condition, only problem is he is asking 1300, which seems way over priced to me, what would be a reasonable offer?

Thanks
 
I have the same grinding noise when my car is could, I believe it is the starter motor, it won't do any harm to the car but after a while the noise does get annoying!
 
Well ivw been told by several people it is the starter motor, I'm planning on changing my soon but it looks like a bit of a pain to change
 
Yea I guessed it was the starter motor, seems to get stuck or something for a few seconds after ignition, no idea about starter motors though so hopefully someone else has some helpful info
