Almost bought one as my first car a few moons ago. The only thing going for it was the price. Everything else was against it, bodywork, engine, mileage the lot. Eventually bought a Morris Marina Coupe. Loved that car.
Can you remember what you paid for your first car mine was £330.00 in 1981 for a second hand Ford Cortina 1600 I remember the insurance costing me £400 please log in to view this image
£1700 for a Vauxhall Combo van. It ended up with 160,000 on the clock, a great starter but I knew it was time to get rid when the breaks failed (doing 10mph at the time thank god).
Mine was a Covid 1.9, it was Chinese made, coughed and spluttered but got around the place quite quickly. It certainly wasn't for the faint hearted, I believe there's still quite a few around the North East.
Back to lockdown, we've cancelled our trip to Krakow for next weekend. We are lucky that we can move the flights to next year but we've had to take a hit on the AirBnB booking of £100.
