Something rubbish, doesnt even have to start, must be less than £100 and possible to get to Bridgend
Need to put it on my drive untill my no claims finish and then i can send it off for scrap.
Preferably a 1.0/1.1/1.5D/Dturbo/1.4 etc etc

Yeh, we went to one today that looked like a scarp yard, asked the guy for a car for £99 - he told me they dont do them any moe, cheapest he could do me was £700 and we're talking proper bangers here.

Auction had one for £175 for an old 1.2 clio, or £99 but that was a rover 820i.

In the end had a chat with a guy up norh and im currently insuring a 1991 Rover mini 1.3 Smile Currently has no engine so i dont think im going to get into any problems with claiming.

Doesnt even need either of those things, ive got it sorted now though by insuring a mini up north... although if you have a 106/3 door 306 shell lying around that originally had a smaller engine for the 106 or a 1.8/Diesel engine in the 306 and want to let it go for less than £100 Smile

Lol, I was wondering how you were going to fit in a Mini, let alone drive it. Ollie has explained though and I think we need a picture of you in it though. Just to see if the mental image is accurate...

Haha, he doesnt say whats wrong with it though, and if its MOT fail could need a hell of a lot of work, i wish i left the old one on my drive so i could swap over all the working parts that had because it left with almost brand new wishbones and ball joints. Mileage is high as well so would probably need a new one putting in and i'm not driving another Dturbo if i can help it... diesel - petrol sounds like a bit of a fun summer challenge though Very Happy

Its an idea at the moment and i doubt it would ever happen to be honest. But maybe when ive got a job i might keep an eye out for a cat C and a wrecked donor car.
