This, advertised for £995-

or this for £750-

There was an E36 318 a mile away from me for £800, so I wouldn't even have to muck about with the bus. But the above two are a bit more interesting.

260E, 96k, £800 and job jobbed.

Also spotted a Galant V6 for £700 but it looked at my wallet with lecherous intent.

I have no cars under £1000 within 10 miles, so I extended to 20 miles, still 0 results, extended to 30 miles and 1 car which was a turd of a Megane so gave up and accepted that I either live in the sticks or the poshest place in the country wink

That is an amazing amount of car for £850!

I like the quote in your profile by the way 'I'd always pay for fuel rather than depreciation'. Very true
