Please don't do it. It's ridiculous.

If it's a Japanese import, can you get parts for it here? And it's old, and looks silly.

:lol: ...Parts are no problem and cheaper - checked that - insurance is cheaper

Spent over £1k on the last MoT for the Volvo

I'd need an 'Old and Silly' sticker from Roofless

No.

I have a golf estate that I paid £2.5k for 3 years ago!!

My utter max on a car is £2.5k!!

I really really hate to see my money sat outside in the rain depreciating!!

Mrs Shifty has a picasso, that cost me £1200, not worth spending any more as it just gets rammed into our wall(in this case twice now)

All daily drivers do is sit on a car park all day and cost you money, the less you spend the better!!

That man talks sense.

I've never spent more than £1600 on a "normal" car.

I do like the landies....nearly bought one instead of the Volvo, but Mrs Max decided they were'nt 'safe' enough

Worth thinking about though
