I sold it because it barely did 20mpg, and I was in college twice a week.

I now have a full time job with a van all paid for, fuel, repairs, insurance etc

I have the cupra for going off if I want some fun

you could get this, find a dog going for sale and swap the engine in. providing the engine is strong of the donor car, you don't need to worry what it looks like, the worse teh better to drive the price down!
