Yup.

Just doing some workings out and if I'm using the Camaro everyday again (with the last few weeks as a template) it's likely to be costing me :

£50+ per week in fuel - Standard travelling.

Last week I travelled 380 miles for work . . . . Which (in the 'Maro) would cost about £125.  I Get a 40p a mile allowance which would pay £152.

Which covers it - but doesn't leave much for repairs / tyres . . .

And most of all doesn't make me any profit !!!

So I'm looking for a Shitty little 1.2L Corsa or similar.

Anyone know of anyone ???

Budjet is £700 ish it MUST have at least 6 months M.o.T.

No, No, No.

1.8L out of the question !
1.6L also No.

Christ 1.4L is even Insurance Group 4 !!!

We're talking 1.2L Range, gentlemen.

Real Cheap.  This is a work only car to Make me money.

The cheaper it is, the more money I make . . . . Any Petrol money will, in future go straight to the Caddy fund.  And will allow me to play with the Maro more without fear of needing to rush it back on the road.

As for DJ, I Have no intention of travelling 200 miles  to find a P.O.S car.

smallest chavscort engine is 1.3 mine is a 1.4 - gives you 20 extra ponies.

worth remembering that 1.4 is the limit for £110 per annum road tax..
