had a bargain today

Post by k1ngy »

we had a cavalier turbo diesel today for £60, its a L(93) reg with a little under 65000 on the clock in burgandy there are a few small issues with it but nothing that cant be done on a budget

the rear near side rear door has a line of rust just above the bump strip and the rear arches are just starting to bubble a little it needs a new battery too, but other than that as far as i know so far it runs and drives great

i got it off a mate who had only picked it up two weeks ago and had just put it in his garden untill after christmas when he was planning on doing it up, so i get a call this morning and he said that he was getting rid and i had first dibs on it, so i spoke to the wife (as you do ;) ) and she said yes woohoo


so tommorrow (well later lol) ill be picking her up and updating with pics hehe tidy

trust me you've got yourself a bargain there for that cash. I've seen renault 5's in worse nick going for 200. For 60, i'l still get it even if i had to get it towed.
