MadManMike Posted November 20, 2008 Report Share Posted November 20, 2008 My mate bought his nova FOR 100QUID and hes had it 3 years with out a single repairConveniently missed the bottom of my post.Well played.I'm not counting people get lucky or people that get offered something "mates rates" - Most of the time if you buy a car off ebay or whatever for £250 it will be a pile of shite.

Broomer Posted November 20, 2008 Report Share Posted November 20, 2008 I wouldn't spend £250 on a car. It'll more than likely be fooked.I'd only buy a car for that much if it came with free AA cover My metro, 250 quid.... 4 thousand miles the last 2 months and i have not had to touch it yet, I even checked the oil the other day..

Revolver Posted November 20, 2008 Report Share Posted November 20, 2008 That's BOB.Why is it jacked up, as opposed to slammed?Paint it black, slam it, and then if you drive really fast, so it's just a blur, then it might look good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
