Anyone know where to find a cheap car

[englisharcher]

Hi, due to various circumstances we re desperate for a cheap car.

We only have £400, and are looking within the Chesterfield, Worksop or Mansfield area, we may be able to travel a little further.

The car needs to be a 5 seater, and the bigger the boot the better.

If anyone knows of anything, please let us know

No specifics, but there's a garage in Holmewood (near J29) that seems to sell sub £1k cars, and another just outside Temple Normanton that always seems to have a few too.

I may have a VW Bora V5 for sale within the next few days, just depends on whether my mate who is using it at the moment finds another car at auction tomorrow

Here are a couple of places to try:

• Bolsover Cars
• Trade Zone Auto's (Calow)
• Junction 29

I also know of a dealers in Grassmoor/Clay Cross area that deal in cheap cars. That is if you have not tried there. Have you looked on AutoTrader?

Hope that helps! -

How did the car hunting go today?

I'm guessing well judging by this thread.
