High driving position, small footprint, damage-resistant bumpers, unattractive to thieves, optimised for travelling at low speeds, it's genuinely perfect for London.

Was looking at Corsa's but was more impressed by the cars on the main road behind.

Product photo of 1987 Nissan Bluebird LX D

I could put in a lazy comment like 'Why?' or 'ALL VOXALLS R SHITE' but I really like ours. On Tuesday I did a 6 hour drive in it and it was GR9 M9.

It's been a while since I last did this, but with the other half having just gone back stateside I though I'd have a look at what's on offer local to her. I'd have a $6k budget for a car...

 

As always, there's a panther platform car so let's get it out the way first...

00202_d9TJI8j3e19_0t20CI_600x450.jpg

This 2005 Mercury Grand Marquis! Not in the best of shape cosmetically , but was the only non-Ex Police patrol panther I could find! (I wouldn't mind an ex-CID, but patrol cars have the wipe down plastic seats in the rear) 

Not bad for $5500, but not sure I'd actually buy it.

 

Anyway, car number 2 is one I've always found interesting due to how the design just doesn't work but somehow does...

00c0c_1yxsvg8dQLp_0CI0t2_1200x900.jpg

A 2000 Chevy Monty Carlo SS! 

This being the earlier V6 SS it has a whopping 200bhp on tap, but I can't say no to it. An actual personal luxury car* stateside would be living the dream! Sure it's not 100% cosmetically, but nothing major!

And for $3995 I'd happily buy that if I was moving there today!  

 

But as much as I like it'd I'd maybe be best getting something more practical in the long run. Sadly I've been told I'm not allowed a pickup as I'd have no need for it so an estate would be the next best thing...

00U0U_eAG0uLUTMts_0CI0t2_1200x900.jpg

And I am more than okay with that! This 1989 Old's Cutlass Curser!

00t0t_1sOWfQd5XcX_0CI0t2_1200x900.jpg

Bonus internal shot! Need I say more? 

Especially for shy of £2k!

 

But sadly I should think more practical, the Pacific North West is famed for it's bad weather in the Autumn and Winter months, so AWD would be a bonus. Also If I can find a loophole to the "No pickups rule" that'd be great...

01111_hI0NF6Oplcw_0xS0pq_1200x900.jpg

Bingo! 2005 Subaru Baja! AWD and its Pickup-cum-estate (If fitted with a bed cap).  

For $3500 it'd likely be the best everyday, practical car!

This is probably going to divide opinion greatly, but I reckon it looks pretty good, and with a Toyota lump in it it should* be moar reliable than the real thing. 

 

Ready? It's not shite priced either btw, but it's still a bit of a deal IMHO. Just shy of 30 bags of errrrr.... pennes  https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/126146192011?hash=item1d5ee6228b:g:WC4AAOSwxTZlMl1L

Vanstation having something almost decent is a rarity

Sadly, the best I can do with 'Winnebago camper' is 'Minge crab weapon' which is something you'll probably need  if you park this in Ingoldmells and venture into a pub.

Define "almost decent".  Those Le Sharons were based on a Mk1 Trafic so the underside is probably made out of bran flakes.

It's Van Nation, so basically anything that would make it 20 yards across their premises.
