Cheap car wanted quickly!!

[cc_Sledge]

Folks,

Looking for a small, cheap car (£500 or less im hoping) thats MOT'd and Taxed so i can take part in the North East 25 Classic Rally this weekend. Anything considered, preferably something nippy with good tyres and a tight handbrake!

If anyone has a car they are looking to get rid of, or knows of 1 please let me know! I opnly need ot for the weekend, and if it survives, i will look to sell on! Ive been looking in Saturdays Scot Ads and Gumtree etc

Now that would have been good - what i forgot to post is that (for some reason) it has to be 2 wheel drive! I have an Impreza and a Trooper so cant use my road cars.

this looks ideal!

The road rally on the Saturday night is part of it but there's a series of offroad tests on private land on the Satruday and Sunday - the car will get a bit of abuse!

I dont particularly want to travel far outside Aberdeen (perth would be the limit).

Appreciate the responses and if anyone does have something to offer, please let me know.

sold - phoned about that yesterday, would have been perfect.

Appreciate your input though, cheers.

forgot to mention the pug is a 1.6 not a 1.1, little bit of a sleeper!!

650!

[Gingernuts]

ok i may have asked for that! i only posted it up as i saw what ideas other people had.

[cc_Sledge]

Dont want to offend you by making a silly offer! I'd probably be able to stretch to about £800 for a car like that - instead of selling after the weekend, im sure it would be a good little track car with a few mods!

[Gingernuts]

that was my intention but another lotus on the scene and my existing track car eating funs has meant this is sat in my garage doing nothing. i was in two minds as its bloody immaculate, almost to good to gut for track use! if you really are interested i am willing to chat on price. give me an email [e-mail]

sorry for the hijack!

Ended up buying a Fiat Bravo 2.0 20v HGT..............

Will get a look at in the daylight tomorrow!! ha ha, might be interesting! Should be good for the weekend as long as it holds together!
