Buying a car

TTony

Car this, car that, car the other.


Did you get the bloody milk???

By the time Emp buys a car, there won't even be petrol or diesel anymore!

Sunday is a bit of a strange day to try and buy a car isn't it?, especially from smaller traders.

This thread is great. It will never die!

If you are thinking of buying the 206 CC (load of nonsense IMO), why not do silly properly and go get a Suzuki Cappacino?

If you fart going down hill, they actually accelerate even more.

Still car-less!  I’ve decided to change my mind again.  I fancy an automatic convertible now.  I’ve just got this craving for an auto for some reason.  The convertible bit is not so important if I can’t find one.  There is a tidy VW Eos in Cardiff with a DSG box.  Nice car but looks a bit too ‘normal’.  The Pug 307cc looks nice / odd but I’m struggling to find one that isn’t in black.

Sprog has found a car she likes and wants us to test drive it soon.

Your move Emp.

Emp is a unique chess piece - forward one, back three

Eat some Mexican food, you might get a craving for a caravan instead.

I'd be shocked if you end up with a VW EOS and I really have no idea what you see in a Pug 307cc.  That is not a car people associate it with different or cool or "god, he knows what he is doing".  It is the complete opposite.

Had one of these myself for 18 months until a couple of years ago......couldn't fault it !
This one's only 40 miles up the road from you.

Nothing to do with me, just did a search with Emp in mind.....God knows why

How about a Swiftmobile?

This must be a troll job. I'm guessing you bought a shitbox ages ago and you're just having us on.

I'm afraid it's not....   Here I am on the train right now!

@steveledzep ; For a moment there I thought you'd found my car.  It's lovely.  Unfortunately, it's also thirsty at 31mpg and out of my budget at 8 grand.  Because I'm not certain an auto convertible is likely to be my 'keeper' car, I've put a limit of 4K on the budget.

Not having it. You have to post a pic of you on the train, holding up a newspaper with today's date clearly visible.

Or he could be on his train to work...like for the past month.

That’s obviously a train in the Ukraine.
