1.4 petrol Fiesta or Corsa. Job jobbed. 

For a small car it really is that simple.

[Field Marshal Dr. Opti]

Local dealer has a plethora of pre registered Astras for £12800 ish, down from £18k+ about £330 pm over three years...

List price for a 1991 Astra (Mk2) 1.8 SXI was around £12000.

Now I know why you think everything should be so cheap..

Opti, it's 2015 now! You've been in a coma for 24 years!

  Not being of sound mind would explain making the same mistake three times, I suppose 


I think we should ask one question that I don't see anywhere else here - what's the budget for this daughterly car?

[Kate]

Her budget was £1800 and she was determined to get a C4.

She got this one yesterday.

I've never had a problem with any car.........since I got rid of my omega. Never spent a penny on repairs.

Did you notice the steering wheel when you drove it? only out ring turns, everything else stays as it was, took me a little getting used to. For that kind of money you can't go wrong, pay that for an Omega and you will back in the garage in a week, just ask STEMO...............

[Field Marshal Dr. Opti]

£1125 for a 55 plate car with low mileage seems good to me.

Just show your 'little girl' where reverse gear is, Ms Kate.

No....you pay big bucks every time you do a P/X

To turn a Daewoo into an Astra.......£2000.
