And I know about the PGAC, my fella is a member, Im sure we've talked about this before :chin:
What kind of Wax you using on that car?
My car is also black it's a nightmare to keep black looking clean!!
My Dad has a 1.2 Corsa. He wanted a new one, but he was having trouble finding a 4-door 1.2, they all seemes to be either 2-door or 1.4.
Mines not a new one, its the older style (R reg) but yes they are hard to find 4 door ones. I got one though .
Dad's is an X-reg with 4 doors, I think he just wanted a new car. Mid-life crisis or something :chin:
hehe ok if you afford it
He can't, thats the problem
Oh dear
A big shit generic jap box? Come on, its good for about £300... alot of car! A four door hatch!
Precisley - compromise sadly, a reliable bluebird... or a dangerous slidey capri i'll probably end up taking out a roundabout exit sign. My Dad used to have one, he loved it... but it was dangerous adn they nearly died in Scotland up a mountian. ;p
Apart from that its a great car.
Oh yeh so we have Loosing my memory me thinks;) He's got a S16 now hasn't he?
The Aygo is the best out of the 3 though as its got Jap build quality & reliability rather than the other 2 being French.
Heh, unlucky! Thats rather suck. Shurley it'd be cheaper to repair it than get rid of it all together though?
And show me more car for that price than a bluebird. Plus if I crash... one less bluebird on the road.
Bluebirds were fine family cars in their day. But they won't be reliable now and they won't be cheap to run. Get yourself the cheap Fiesta.
ps He could get the petrol leak repaired and sell the car
If he's doing that, why not keep it?
The kindof fietsa i'd be buying would be just as old - my budget is <500...
Lada Riva? So the interior would fall apart.. but at least it's built like a tank outside. I really don't want a generic fiesta/nova type thing. Im looking at old saloons/hatches because I intend to drive round the UK with my mate. And hence, more room.
Also could get an old Vovlo. But a cheap Crapi 1.6 is tempting me alot...
Get a little runaround cheapy and get a cool car when you can afford it.
If you wanted a bigger car, look at old German cars - one's that are built to last. Volvos would be fine too but check the insurance.
Meh, I was planning on getting a Capri and modifying it gradually as insurance fell - a kindof ongoing project - eventually culminating in me reaching 30 and sinking a V8 in. So a 1.6 would be a good start as no-one cares about them. Plus, Classic Car Insurance! (Although it would probably be a right shunter, but hey.) I don't realy care about "coolness" or i'd buy a Fiesta and stick a bodykit on it, as that seems to be cool.
However, it'd probably spend more time broken down if we face reality... shame. And whatever is wrong with a Bluebird? They may be boring... (except the ZX turbo. Which I cannot afford.) but if its a reliable first car, I don't care. And it'll teach me what not to buy in future, from what everyone has said.
why don't you just use your fighter jet?
But wouldn't insurance be madness?
And talk of Jet Fighters, there is a Sea Harrier on Milweb for 25k
