Total up the current estimated value of your current cars and we'll see what interesting 'new' or 'nearly' new car you could get with the monies. S13 - £3k (wouldnt even consider selling it at that price though, owes me far, far more) Blazer - £2k 340 - £750 Metro (would never sell, but ho hum) - £1k? MGC GT (Over my dead body would I sell it) - £10k? (not sure really, as im gradually restoring it to concourse) Bandit (selling it anyway, so throw this into the equation) - £3.5k minimum FS1e (would'nt ever, ever sell it, but im up for the lolz - £2k minimum (its concourse ![]() TY175 (couldnt sell it, same as the fizz) £2k~ So that gives me £24k roughly, if I sold all the vehichles I owned at the moment... not bad... Now, the fun part, find me a car that meets ALL these criterias ![]() Fun to drive 4wd for the snow + shit weather (if I cant work, I cant pay the bills, simple!) good on long trips big enough to move house good for commuting fun to drive, yes ive said it twice, but I sell cars because they bore me, if it aint fun, i'll sell it! good on fuel quick interesting quirky has character not a boring shitbox that you'll see 30 of in one day (thats the hard one ![]() stupidly reliable, if I aint got a backup car, it has to be reliable Its a difficult one, its why I own so many cars really, and chop and change so often... allows me to cover all the bases without the stupid expense of buying a new car! | ||
