stupidest thing you have traded a car for.

[englisharcher]

In the mid 90s, I traded a mk3 Cavalier, for a DVD player.

An air rifle, for a Metro.

And a mini disc player, for a mk1, 3 door Sierra 1.6.

What are your strange trades?

[175gt]

Magic beans. I've never lived it down.

The car or the sister?

Vaguely connected, but I got bored of my first car, a reliable but tired Datsun 120Y coupe no less.

I sold it for a tenner, because I just wanted rid, but also because I fancied a Capri 1.6L which turned out to be a dog.

I went into debt for that Crapi too. Lesson learned.

The car. It rattled, smoked, was hard to start and the brake bias was broken so it tried to kill me a few times. The sister did that a bit too though.

On a whim, I traded in a Mk 4 Golf 180 GTi for a Mark 5 Golf 1.6 FSI. I lost interest in the latter after a few weeks and sold it soon after that (and took a big hit)

Made me laugh - either way round it works

Impreza GB270 exchanged for my wedding.

[sleep envy]

Swapped my Integrale for new windows for my first house.

I think I got the better deal, the 'grale rusted to pieces and the windows still look like new.

Late 80s a family friend swapped a Lotus Esprit for a kitchen-extension.
