I'd get an early stira 4-5k, and keep the balance for any potential repairs. Failing that, I'd get a typeR that's just had a rebuild by a professional outfit.

Sod putting 8k deposit down and lining someone elses pocket for inferior cars

tuts, off the top of my head pete lewis, sorry bil, pays about 300 a month if the car cost about £25000.

but in reality he doesn't have the car, he's a troll with many user names and that's all i've got say on the matter

Just had a look on ebay, Christ the cars are cheap now! Found a rebuilt (100 miles) stiV4 from API, sold for 5 grand!

Might get one myself!

You can have my shed of a MY01 wagon for 7,945 spend the extra £50 on a valet to remove the sheddyness and you'll still have a fiver in your pocket.

I'd spend 6k on a late Classic and keep the rest to personalise slightly with some change for any repairs that it may need...


Cheers,
