Soray Convergent Firmus Ixion	Posted - 2008.04.06 04:37:00 - [4] Go with one of the new Vauxhall Corsa's IMO, depending on the engine and trim you should be able to get one for below or around the 10k mark, especially when Vauxhall are trimming upto ú700 if you order online. Reliable car, decent mpg and low CO2 levels means you'll be saving a bit in the long term due to petrol/road tax (Think the 1.3 versions have a C02 level of around 115g/km, which means only ú35 a year for road tax)
Patch86 Di-Tron Heavy Industries Atlas Alliance	Posted - 2008.04.06 10:01:00 - [5] Get a ú1000 10 year old Peugeot and 18,000 bags of crisps \o/ ------ Originally by: Dark Shikari The problem with killing Jesus is he always just respawns 3 days later anyways.
Benco97 Exchangable Properties	Posted - 2008.04.06 10:57:00 - [6] Personally I'd buy a LOAD of second hand cars and then sell them on. I've never paid more than ú500 for a car.

I've never paid more than ú500 for a car. This tbh, new cars you lose so much just leaving the forecourt, and most "modern" cars suck ass, go old skool and get a 2nd hand (but good runner) and restore her up! (and no not shove exhausts on it to make it sound like a 747. HINT:.. A Metro is still a metro with a body kit and "wake the dead" exhaust. your still going to get laughed at. V8I
Spaced Skunk D00M. Triumvirate.	Posted - 2008.04.06 11:33:00 - [8] 2003 Ford Mondeo 2.0 TDCi (Turbo Diesel). Good fuel costs, good drive and can pick one up for around ú3-4K used. To Spawny, a great guy, a great laugh. Rest in peace buddy.
baltec1	Posted - 2008.04.06 11:48:00 - [9] corsa, clio, second hand mini's. If you can get the new polo modle, it has fantastic MPG. Just please, do not get a new Micra
Logi3	Posted - 2008.04.06 12:02:00 - [10] I go with the likes of a Vectra, Passat, Audi A4, Golf MKIV, Skoda Octavia, Mondeo All come with great diesel engines wich will go forever and cruise along in comfort. Plenty of room too! ---- Please visit your user settings to re-enable images.
vanBuskirk Caldari Provisions	Posted - 2008.04.06 12:22:00 - [11] Ex-demo cars are usually a good buy. Less depreciation than new (most of that is in the first year), low mileage and you can bet that they have been well maintained! Plus you know for sure that it isn't a Friday afternoon or Monday morning model (i.e. lemon). The only problem is that choice will be a bit limited, as will the choice of fittings. As for model, if I was in the market right now I'd be looking at Skodas. They are now owned by VW, use VW bits, and are made to VW standards. Half the taxis in my town are Skodas, so that tells you something! The Skoda Octavia (mid-sized 4-5 seater) is probaly going to be just under your budget as an ex-demo car. ---------------------------------------------- "Violence is the last refuge of the incompetent."
Zephyr Rengate Prophets Of a Damned Universe	Posted - 2008.04.06 12:23:00 - [12] I would just buy loads of GTCs. Have more fun with internet spaceships.
JADE DRAG0NESS	Posted - 2008.04.06 12:34:00 - [13] Id just get a decent 2nd hand car from a reputable dealer. You can even get some pretty nice cars with optional extras and with a little luck you'll end up with some change. Maybe even enough to pay for a decent holiday "Kill one man, and you are a murderer. Kill millions of men, and you are a conqueror. Kill them all, and you are a god." -- Jean Rostand

Glassback	Posted - 2008.04.06 16:07:00 - [20] Thanks for the replies. The Mondeo/Vectra idea sounds good, still need space for trips to the dump etc. No way I would buy a brand new car with the instant depreciation. G. LinkedIn Please visit your user settings to re-enable images.
Zacheria Malfor Auriga inc	Posted - 2008.04.06 17:50:00 - [21] Wouldn't touch anything from Fiat. Maybe a Honda Civic? usually they are pretty reliable. Do not fear the reaper, for death is the only certainty in life.

Kappas. Galaxy Punks Black Core Alliance	Posted - 2008.04.07 00:51:00 - [25] Edited by: Kappas. on 07/04/2008 00:51:45 Depending on what size of car you want... Golf/Astra/Focus if you want a smaller car, focus has slightly better handling I feel than the Astra, but I prefer the look of the new Astra to the focus. Golfs I don't really like for some reason... maybe the boy racer image with 16" exhausts :P A4/Vectra/Mondeo if you want a bigger car. In this day and age it usually doesnt hurt to go diesel, especially for road tax in the UK iirc. __________________ Recruitment temporarily closed.
pwnedgato The Black Dawn Gang Mashen T'plak	Posted - 2008.04.07 00:55:00 - [26] I wonder what it is like to have to consider handling... the only time I ever have to make any tight turns is when I park. Originally by: Crumplecorn These is a forum for this.
