The most difficult car to buy?
Discussion
A cheap one. Maximum £500 (ish).
Both me and my son have just been through it, an eye opening experience. He was after a daily when he sold his MK5 Golf GTi and wanting to save to get his fun car restored. I was after one for the wife as I was going working away for a few months.
Plenty of 'if only' moments.
Plenty of cars that should have been sent to the scrapper.
He ended up with a Lupo SDi (he hates it but it will do over the winter).
We ended up with a K12 Micra, which needed work but was cheap and now is sorted. Bought new battery, new exhaust, boot kept popping open (fixed with a switch/handle from scrap yard) ignition is a bit of an issue on these and this was no different, I wired in a push button to start it (she thinks it is cool).
Just hope my car lasts doing 450 miles a week to Reading and back.
