IDGM Posted April 16, 2009 Report Share Posted April 16, 2009 (edited) In my pursuit of a cheap kiddie hauler, I'm ashamed to say I'm seriously considering one of these in CRD formYou get the 140hp VAG diesel and you can fit 20s no problem!

LINCOLNSHIRESLUPOGTI Posted April 16, 2009 Report Share Posted April 16, 2009 (edited) As some of you know I have a like for old cars from the years when I was younger. I do have a new car (you cant get an alternative that is old really) but for my daily runaround I will only have older cars as they have more character, individuality and reliability than new cars.....at a fraction of the cost.....and with stable depreciation.Obviously there are much better cars I like, this list is the kind of crappy ones that I shouldn't like but do for some reason.Older stuffCitroen AX GT (I had a mint one years ago when they were quite new).BMW E30 and E21.Ford Orion injection ghia (mark 2 based on the mark 4 Escort).Ford Sierra Sapphire Ghia 4x4.Ford Granada 2.8 injection ghia (is it mark 3, last of the square shaped ones).Mercedes 190e (I have had mine 2.5 years now).Peugeot 405 Mi16.Renault 19 16v chamade (phase 1).Vauxhall Nova Gsi (standard).Vauxhall Astra Gte 16v.VW Jetta (mark 1 or mark 2, not the silly new one).I have considered buying nearly all of these cars for my run around (AX GT and Nova Gsi excluded).New(er) stuffAlfa 145 Cloverleaf.Chrysler 300C V8 Hemi.Diahatsu Coure Avanzato.Fiat Cinquecento sporting (in grey).Ford Sport Ka (in grey).Vauxhall Omega 3.0 Elite.VW Sharan VR6.Never considered buying any of these.

Mr ColinG Posted April 17, 2009 Report Share Posted April 17, 2009 My first car I did try to buy another to arrive at my wedding in last year, but bottled it at the last minute. I can't see Mrs M being to impressed.Not the firsthttp://100a.blogspot.com/I had a later 100A when I was learning to drive, great car, loved the bucket seats, but it was made of paper, then I warped the cylinder head, still managed to get £65 for it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
