hi folks...guess you're aware of my car woes of late...I had to buy a cheap car about 6 months ago, well, it's MOT is due on the 24th so I took in 2 weeks early on saturday thinking that it would fail...anyway it did - minor things really, a dodgy handbrake cable and a leaking exhaust...I'm sure the mechanic must have prodded the exhaust as within an hour of me leaving I heard a rattling sound and it turns out that the exhaust was trailing along the ground :mad: I managed to tie it up but now it sounds like a boy racers car...sigh... I've decided that paying the 100 quid or so isn't worth it so I've gonne spend around 1-1500 on a second hand one... basically, I want a 1.6 - 2.0litre with - something like a new model (r reg onwards) peugeot 306... I'm still not sure whether to get a small car or something bigger like a mondeo / vectra..? any advice grateful - what cars shoukd I go fo, and which ones to avoid? cheers p.s. what do you think I should with the old one..?? I'd be happy if i could get 50 quid for it...would a dealer go part exchange..? put it on ebay and hope that someone will buy..? - I'd of course list all the issues etc what a scrap yard give me a bit of cash..? - it's got 3 new tyres...:D
