An idea at £1600. Toyota's run forever, and you might find one cheaper if you hunt around...

As an update Insurance groups are going to be an issue.
e.g.
Volvo C70 quote is 230 per month!!!!
850T5 old un modded, 900 per annum

[kiwifraser]

In that case. Subaru or Passat

Nice but tidier can be had for that money, go on the merc forums mbworld.org etc. I would say get a 300ce like mine, I love the old barge and she does move forwards (enough) Not great on fuel, so is that a concern? 24 mpg est

uggg yes I feel like crap this morning!!

Rich is having to check every car with the insurance company

So far the interested cars are

Legacy (like subject to insurance)

Mondeo diesels (because he can isure them)


The problem is Rich is 23 and has 3 write offs on his insurance record, these are complicated by 1 being a no fault, the second is still in court wasnt his fault but uninsured driver and the latest one in no fault by the BiB but going to... court....

So we are finding he now cannot insure anything fun...

We have been chcking each of the cars so keep em comming

[bmw2002]

Along with the Legacy I have these too that might fit the bill

Peugeot 406 Coupe 2Litre, 99 V reg with history, leather/air/alloys etc? £900
96 N 740i BMW, history, new engine by BMW 35000 miles ago? £1350ish
