after quite a nasty little run of loss's on cars i've given up this buying and selling lark.
after the £700+ i made on my last williams sold to daz0rz i treated myself to a vts whcih broke shortly after buying and i sold spares or repair at a £200 loss. luckily i made a few £££ on my black swift gti. at this point i opted for a 106 gti which i lost £500 on as the front end collapsed within 200 miles and the mot turned out to be fake.
anyway to get to the point im retiring from the car scene and was wondering on your thoughts on a nice reliable car thats not gonna break on me and i dont spend endless hours attempting to repair or bodge repair(clio).
the swift gti i have at minute is sold and ive got basically £1000 to spend on something without going into debt.
i think its gonna hve to be a civic vti as they have come down in price alot and they still have some performance not to mention honda reliability.
anyone owned one (old shape) looking for one around a j-k plate. i had a p reg one but only had it to swap for another car so cant really give an opinion on it.
comparisons to williams/ valver etc. info info appreciated cheers
