Right so I need a reliable load lugger (estate or SUV) for a few months for as little cash as possible. Something I know will start every time. Mileage / fuel type / age not an issue. Ideally easy to resell.

Cheers

2.0 VTEC or 2.4 engine.

The diesel version is great but a bad one will have a lot of issues the petrol won't have.

Look at the type of cars your local private hire companies are using for taxis. Usually a good indication

Some good ideas, thanks people. I guess most cars that make it to 29 years / 100k that still run shouldn’t be dogs.

No necessarily so.

Don’t buy anything that’s too cheap - it very likely will be a dog.

By that I mean in terms of brakes and steering, not whether the radio works.
