Weeelllllllll . . . it would be nice if the exhaust was not a 'consumable'.  Ran this one car to over 180K , original exhaust, shocks and CV boots were in great shape!  It was an American car  :o

I bet it wasn't a Cadillac Catera!  ;) There have been a few lemons come out of the USA - AMC Pacer, the infamous Edsel but on the whole I'd love a big old 'Yank Tank'. If I had the money, space & time to do it justice I "want that one" -:

not too bothered about the exhaust and tyres like Markiec said consumables.

the shocks though, well i only have myself to blame, regularly go to france with the wife seeing as shes French, and i do have a tendancy to fill the boot with wine  ;) big boot you know, get a lot of wine in there!!!!!  :y

....no not fully comp for the windscreen, price is only 100 though + VAT . unless its heated which im 99% sure its not.
