So thought was about time I got a set of wheels over here in Australia.
Few conditions really, I cant tune it (girlfriends aswell
)
Needed to be reliable,
cheap for parts,
economical,
common (so cheap to buy/fix)
and have mot&tax (equivalent of is Roadworthy Cert and Rego)
Cars in Australia are fairly expensive, as they dont rust out so they hold their value.
I have failed really on the whole car with dignity tbh, after driving the twin turbo 3 door derv wagon
Fail points;
Win aspects are its a wagon, so its fairly ok in that respect :p can sleep in it and fit everything I need in.
Anyway, pics of this fail bus see attached. It was $2200 which is cheap for this, Fresh MOT and 6 months tax. Half a tank of juice, and only 220,000km on it... which over here is nothing (It takes 800km to go to the nearest shop 99% motorway)
Its all very virgin tight haha
