This should be a 1.4 on logbook.....gives me a nice sleeper tho but is cheap to insure.

 

Also a pug 306.

Pug is winning or me at the moment.

have you seen the user name of the guy with the astra, he is called sierra300zx

Cant see the pug, but the astra :shock: IMHO stay well clear, you are looking for a cheap run about to see you through till the Z is fixed. Forget modded and fooked about with cars in this price bracket, it will just lead to grief.

 

Do yourself a favour forget piston heads, look in the local rags and autotrader for a standard unmolested motor, hopefully with an old codger as the last owner who has looked after it for years.

 

No point in buying something you are going to have to fling money at, Just get the Z sorted.

as ossain says, you are just asking for trouble buying a modded cheap car, get something like a 1.4 clio or something, ourlass has an s plate clio and loves it, its nice to drive and gets 180 miles to £20 of petrol

totally agree. i am currently driving a 1.2 clio while my z is off the road, saving a fortune in fuel and it all adds up to fix the lady.

306 turbo diesels are fantastic motors :)

I'd agree about the Clio - you should give one a test drive. I bought a W plate Clio S 1.4 this week for my girlfriend and it drives really well, first Renault I had driven, had already tested two Tigras and a Corsa before going to give the Clio a go and it wins hands down, and I find myself finding excuses to nip to the shops in it now :)

..

I have found a nice wee 306 1.9 diesel.

So looks like it may be between the 306 not far from my house or a turbo diesel near glasgow.

Ok chaps i will stay clear of modded cars etc and go for a nice 1.4 or the AX Si has found.

If its a 306 you go for it needs to be the turbo version

Hmmm.....Renault.....

any suggestions?

Same owner for 8years, should be a failry older chap for this car i think.

could be a contender.
