Wanted Anybody got anything small or medium, cheap and reliable for £350 or less?

[comfysofa]

Hi All,

 

Just a quick recce to see if anyone here has a car that has a reasonably long MOT, is cheap to run, not about to kark it or need megabucks to spend on it, and is no more than £350 (my very top end) and not a trillion miles away from Milton Keynes...

 

Basically, i am looking for a car, i have been for weeks now and lack of coinage has meant that i'm just shy of something decent on ebay and i didn't fancy any of the associated shite that is on there, my own stupidity and dawdling means i missed out on 2MB's Polo.

 

So does anyone have a usable small or medium cheap to run car for three hundred and fifty beans or less as i now have a stress induced migrane from studying ebay, gumtree, auto trader and the MOT history site all weekend...

 

A Kia Pride would be a dream (hint, hint) but i'm pretty much open to all suggestions!

I have just moted and lent my Audi tdi estate to a mate for as long as he needs it, i could ask him how long he needs it if your desperate though maybe no good.

If you can go another £50 and travel to Cheshire...

 

 

 

..which has a genuine 40,000 miles and a brand new MOT.

He wants £100.

 

I'll even deliver it down to you for a cheap ticket back to Kidderminster if it helps.

 

Its SERIOUSLY clean.

I have a Picasso coming in soon, Mot until June next year, 1.6 petrol utterly dull and utterly reliable. 

Could meet halfway or summat I guess?

I'm ok for now as i still have my current car, but that's a very kind offer sir, very decent!

I didn't expect so much response! i'm genuinely shocked! will sift through what's been offered and will be sending more PM's in the next few hours! Ta everyone...

 

ruffgeezer...if you can crush it so it fits roughly into a jiffy bag can i have a postage quote for Hermes to lose it?    joking apart, i'm sure it's a fine beast but just a wee bit too big as i say thanks anyway mate.

Thank you for the 'reminder' Mr. EssDeeWon. Git.

 

I reckon I will keep hold.

 

Are you popping over for a November curry? 'Yes' would be the safest and most appropriate answer.
