    thinking of buying winter runabout

    my mint willy 3 is currently in my mums garage after i gave it a full valet and tbh im reluctant to bring it back out until the winter is over. seriously thinking about buying a cheap runabout to save the willy from the winter salt etc. my mates got a polo k reg low miles for sale should do the business.

    Sack that idea straight away!!!

    Get yourself either a Valver or a Mk2 Gti 16v :D

    Easily pick one up for a grand, just over. Both good cars, both have good resale prospects come the spring. I reckon you probably wouldnt loose a penny on either of them....assuming you paid the right price on day one.

    IMO of course! :P

    Best of luck.

    I've just bought a R plate Astra 1.6 16v, 66k FSH for £1100. Ideal for winter run around and using back and forth to work to keep the miles off the williams.

    Its nice to have a car you can park anywhere and not worry about. Williams will be used for weekends and special occasions from now on in.
