looking to get reliable. winter hack.been looking at caddy vans. golf mark 2 possible. what would you get. got to be german. possible a volvo. and not crazy on insurance.
Skoda Superb. Or depending how brave you're feeling, I'm sure early/mid 2000's 7-series can be had within that money. You can do some proper wafting about in those, especially the long wheel base ones
skoda fabia shall have a look i like the oldish Volvos 240 etc and the smaller ones. didn't no they weren't german. thank you late bay people.
you get a lot for your money on the skoda. looking at a very nice 1.6tdi cr se plus 2011 49k on the clock £4,290. metallic green.would be like a new car to me.. my other half drives a mark 1 as a daily for the last 12 years. my bus if of the road till next year . not shaw if i fancy another winter on the bike. is the 1.2 any good. cheers the drama man.jonboy-t
BMW and snow don't mix ...anything from the VAG group would be fine .. I've had A3s for the last 14 years
your wright about BMW rubbish in snow. had a 2002 polo what a pile of rubbish. A3s yes. theres a nice 3 door 1.6 technik 3 door 73k 2009 for under £5000. of to the pub for a think. cheers ihu 1281
I'm not a fan of the Fabia, too small for me, but you do get a lot for your money with used Skodas. The Fabia is like a cut price Golf, for what you'd spend on a poverty spec Golf, you'd get the top spec Skoda with all the trimmings. Here's a left field option - Mitsubishi L200. Low mileage for a monster like that, barely run in https://www.autotrader.co.uk/classi...vertising-location=at_cars&radius=1501&page=1
only need a run around. love old corrodo;s but not going to pic up one of those low miles cheap ins. mitsubishi no thanks. mrs would kill me. A3 or fabia.
Why in the name of sanity would you spend four bags on a winter beater of doom? My mate Ken is selling his F plated Volvo 340DL in 1400 variomatic flavour. He's looking for about £750. Failing that I know of a nice* FX-4 for £300.
