I still think you buy shite, never known anyone have so much trouble with cars as you.

I'm just unlucky tbh, it's not just cars, but seeing as this is a car forum that's what I tend to moan about on here.

I don't have the choice that most people do either, due to distance, insurance etc. And the same thing happens every single time - I umm and arr about a really good car for so long it's gone by the time I decide to go for it....so then I just jump on the next one that's probably only half as good in case I miss it! Stupid thing is, I know I keep doing the same thing...so why do I keep doing it!

ill be the first man to admit i buy shite, but part of the fun is not knowing if itll start in the morning

Not my idea of fun!

you dont pay "over the odds" for a car that has been well cared for.. you pay what is due..

you pay dirt cheap prices for piles of shite tbh


when i bought my vitara i payed next to nothing for it because i knew it had issues, and was prepared to work on them (brake m/c, calipers, head gasket, now i think a cracked head too, and some-lots-of bodywork rust)

I have previously bought cars needing work, in fact my current HDi I bought with a snapped cambelt, 206 I bought knowing it was a non-starter etc, but I just don't have the option to do that now. I also don't have any confidence in my own work, despite having it all checked over at the garage anyway lol.
