Hi, i'm looking to buy a second car. basically i'm trying to find a little run-around. i've been searching the auto trader and here on the ph website but to no joy. every time i ring the seller its gone, it could be because what i want is quiet simple but also what everyone else is looking for.

i'm after any car under £500, under 1.3 liter, with tax/mot (preferably long, but at least six months will do), and within 25 miles from blackwater.

so i'm asking here if anybody knows anyone selling anything like this that hasnt advertised or if anyone can help me....

just on their site now but i dont know if the cars i'm looking at have tax/mot. plus ive never been to a car auction so i'm not really sure what to do. (other than bid, pay and leave)

I know, I rang a whole bunch of people today, most were already gone and the couple I saw were in such a rough condition that the money being asked for them was a joke. My deadline is July so I've got time.
