Drive away for £200, the cheapest of cheap shite thread


Recommended Posts

It’s probably knackered though because “they’re so reliable those old toyotas” - no it won’t stop running but it might need a fair bit spending on worn out items.

Megawant, but insert here some generic excuse about the huge distance.

That just makes the collection thread more interesting!

Can you weld? Have you the patience to weld? Buy this. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Ford-Puma-1-7-owned-15-years-full-service-history-recent-MOT-failure-200/153256583086?hash=item23aecddfae:g:ICYAAOSw34Fbs8Eq

 

Fucking megabarg. Worth it for the engine and wheels surely?

 

DISCLAIMER: no it doesn't have MOT, sorry. Didn't think it warranted its own thread though. Sue me

It’s got Hirst written all over it that has

Alannahs Fiesta doesn’t have an MOT but apparently only needs brakes. Piece of proverbial on one of these, and very cheap. Looks a cheerful little thing for £120 and probably comes with a whole load of free corrosion as a bonus.

Looking at last years advisory notifications, it might also be worth budgeting for rear brake hoses, cv joint gaiters and lower wishbones. Still cheap though

Kevin from Romford is so honest you don’t actually need to see a picture of the car. But he is good enough to let you know that it is a Skoda Felicia

I dread to think what sort of a state it is in but bearing in mind I am going to Romford later, I might cruise the Rotunda Estate where the car is based to see if I can see it anywhere. Maybe later I will be able to post a blurry pic of a shagged Skoda incorporating a confused looking large tattoo’d man and his equally large tattoo’d bull terrier.

Hey this looks pretty decent and usable for £200. MOT to next September, mileage ok, big engine and CO2 though so I would think the VED on this will be a bit of a bastard.

 

MOT history isn’t all that bad either. Wonder what that dash light is though?

Its usually a coil pack, sensors And will need spark plugs and Tlc.

Flip if this was closer I'd have a butchers. Can't see the light being anyrhing serious if its been like that for 3 years. Chains on these are a weak point but for 2 ton who cares!

The wheels alone will probably recoup half the purchase price on the bay

Kevin is spoiling you , when you look at his advert on my mobile it doesn't even give you a make or a model !!!

It's yours if you want it £200 or £177 if you buy all the roffle ticks.

 

Ticket to July, EML on but drives around still, noise from a wheel bearing (new supplied) and a bit giffered externally.

 

Surely somebody must want this?

That's a bit of alright for £100!! That 2.0 engine has some balls in a car that size.

 

Well spotted.

Bought it yet,?

Was half tempted. An old neighbour had one of these and it went like the preverbial from a shovel, apparently.
