afternoon/evening all

 

i am going to be selling my car and thus will be looking for a new car. i do mostly motorway miles so the Metro just isn't very practical.

 

i have been searching for a couple of weeks, but nothing is particularly grabbing me. here is a list of what i need/have, just want ideas on what cars i could get.

 

i have around £900 to spend

car must have long MOT and be reasonably reliable

around insurance group 10 mark

 

anyone got any ideas?

 

 

got to sell my car first so not looking to buy something for a week or so

 

(if anyone is interested in my car pm me - Metro GTi)

 

cheers all

errr escort si?!

not very specific really do you want petrol, diesel 3 door, 5 door etc....

langers is selling his in a post further down...

dunno if its group 10 tho..its a 2.0l iirc..

im not too bothered about being specific as im open to anything really. just really cant decide.

 

i would like an escort si if it was a good condition one.

for 900 quid u shud find a 1.8Si in good nick with full MOT

I have a 1.6 LX 5 door that you can have for less than your budget, mint Si interior, gti rear bumper, cabby sideskirts, fog front bumper (has mesh instead of fogs fitted with aftermarket fogs behind), 16 inch alloys, some service history, nearly 12 months MOT (till march 09), very recent timing belt/rear drums/shoes/brake cylinders. It has had a clutch and cat in the past couple of years too.

I found Nath a near mint Escort saloon for £650 in silver ,really stunning motor too

M-reg+ Mondeo?

1.8TDi

 

What I'm thinking of atm... decent motorway muncher, cheap and seem to last forever!

 

Not sure on insurance group but I've been quoted £400 a year on top of my current quote which I would save in petrol in 4-6 months easy!

i got my 1.8si for 850, its practically mint
