That sounds rather economical, wish I could get anything close to half of that

Not today but a while back.. the skoda fucked up, sold it as a non runner for Ł1800, 2 lads form Manchester came down and collected it, and few weeks later got it running as normal again..found out that the timiong chain hadn't been changed ona service at 60k had done 84k, so pretty gutted about that...
went out and got this:
x reg - 77500k Ł550 few dents one on the side as you can see, and one on the rear door. Crappy paint job but it gets me from a-b.
