Return of the £200 shite thread

[Sloth in a bowl]

In this post transferable tax world the quality of what you can buy that moves and has an MoT must have surely gone up; so here I am digging through Scumtree for the best in ultimate bargain motoring.

 

The rules are simple £200 or less on the advert, the car must have some form of MoT and be able to move under its own power.

 

First up we have what must be an error in the advert for this £150 Laguna, I suspect the car is totally dead or they left a 0 off the price.

It starts, it drives, it has an MOT and some missing wheel trim, it's a Clio

If the Clio is too hot for your blood then relax in this shafted Polo

Now we hit the Jackpot, it's green, can swallow a family and has an MoT that will get you to next summer. Only a knackered clutch from perfection

Is this what Dollywobbler should be buying?

It's the Astra that all the top shitters will want in their life, it's the club dualfuel (gas hob and electric oven I think)

Top £200 motor choice is an old 405 TD with a load of spares, not that you'll be needing them.

MoT will get you through to the spring. Winter beater of distinction anybody?

In this post transferable tax world...

 

The amount of cars still advertised with tax totally belies this fact.

Feel more French than a wheel of brie by driving a white 306 that has a boot!!!

I, like many people think that there will be 'enough tax to drive home' on many a vehicle sold from now on.

[sierraman]

The guy whose selling that 405 has been trying to sell it for ages, keeps relisting it. Guessing its got something chronic like head gasket or something

[vulgalour]

I reckon it's the mileage putting folk off tbh, it seems a tidy enough thing from the one picture in the advert, but it could have a massive penis spray-painted on the other side.

[Pillock]

Must be something about 405 owners. At least this one doesn't have any currency-handbrake interference and an increasingly irate owner.

[chaseracer]

First up we have what must be an error in the advert for this £150 Laguna, I suspect the car is totally dead or they left a 0 off the price.

 

 

It says TRANSMISSION: OTHER in the ad, which 1) may explain everything and 2) is so typically Laguna...

 

[sierraman]

What do people honestly want for £200! Someone said to me other day... 'Who'd buy a car with 100,000 miles on the clock?' Err every car I've had I've took over 100k.

[Noel Tidybeard]

the front wheel of that 405 looks in the wrong place

[They_all_do_that_sir]

Still staggered at the amount of cars advertised with tax

[Spiny Norman]

VW Olop MOT'd till April, bit of an oil leak. £200.

[Spiny Norman]

Micra, 8 months MOT. No major faults. £125.

[vulgalour]

I want to buy that Micra because the advert is so pleasant to read.  The fact it also looks like a tidy little car is a nice little bonus.

It says TRANSMISSION: OTHER in the ad, which 1) may explain everything and 2) is so typically Laguna...

 

I think even £150 for this is optimistic...

[bub2006]

Is it wrong to want that 405 so bad? Only 20 mile away too

[vulgalour]

do it do it do it do it do it do it do it do it

[PiperCub]

the front wheel of that 405 looks in the wrong place

 

Too far back? That's what I was thinking, or is it an optical delusion?

[bub2006]

Nothing like a bit of peer pressure Vulg! The front wgeel looks back because i think there is a bit of right hand steering angle and the wheeltrim not sat right. Could be wrong though.

take yer pick

[barefoot]

the front wheel of that 405 looks in the wrong place

Is it beacause all the wheeltrims are different?
