SiC Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 That wagon R is completely end of life. If it's smoking enough to be seen then it's not going to pass another MOT without serious engine work. Plus at least one tyre is knackered and probably not legal. The fact it isn't being driven till the MOT expires means it's most certainly fucked big style. Might as well flush some of your money down the toilet. Kiltox and EssDeeWon 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerzy Woking Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 What's the chances of one of these sub £200 cars making it from Essex to Southern Spain? I will need to take some stuff down with me on a one way trip. Local Spanish scrappy will buy it off of me once there, so no headache getting rid of it after a couple of months.

Kiltox Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 Something like the £250 Almera on the last page would be a very good bet. Jerzy Woking 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, but isn't the whole point of this thread to find cars that you can run until the MOT and scrap, thus losing only a minimal amount of money? I didn't realise we were looking for long term investments in the cesspool that is the sub-£200 market Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't realise we were looking for long term investments in the cesspool that is the sub-£200 market It’s not about buying absolute scrap either though is it - if it hasn’t got a hope in hell of even lasting til it’s MOT never mind passing another, what’s the point?

00833827 Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 Got his today. 1 months test and over 6 months tax on it. Located a 5 min walk from my house so no collection thread business. No rust as is generally the way here on old things. 1.1 pez, 4x4 works well. Stereo doesnt and it smells like a pack of dogs smoked a pack of cigs in it but there ya go. I will post a bit more about it in another thread but since it worked out at about at an extorsionate £225 after exchange rate is applied i figured it could be mentioned here BlankFrank, Parky, Carlosfandango and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
