Nice 1.6 petrol Hyundai for 700 bucks, not sure if it has any tax on it but surely room for a haggle to get it covered for three months over the phone.

Not certain about this exact model but some of the early Noughties (late 90s) Hyundais while they may have improved general reliability had fierce rust on screws and fixings and even brackets .

I’ve had top end Toyotas with nuts/bolts/screws and brackets that were so badly rusted they practically dissolved. It’s the one area all car makers will penny pinch, saving a cent each on billions of fixings saves a lot of money.

They'd all be a bit guilty of that , I'd a Tucson about 5 years ago and she was orange enough underneath, had 2 Elantras back in the noughties, they are solid enough, think 1995 Corolla would be thirsty enough and quite fond of burning oil

2004 A4 1.9 TDI
NCT 08/21
Asking €750

Won't be everyone's cup of tea due to age and many will struggle to get competitive quotations on it but these have their fans on the forum and this one seems to have held up well. These are 4 door, not 5 door as the seller seems to think though.

NCT 05/21

I would have thought that the top spec model had full leather and can only assume the exterior is less than perfect but that's not what its about in a low tax diesel car in this price range. Eyes wide open and that all the same.

I think one of his children are trapped under the dash...
Not a bad looking car in fairness, they're very comfortable. A bit slow and a bit thirsty but if you were just tipping around it would certainly be nicer than a 1 litre bean tin.

Have a thread started but might get quicker answer here. Delete if not allowed

Well
Challenge here for you
Find a car with similar needs
Saloon with nct and tax a bonus
Advertiesd no more than €1,500
Needs to be on a southern plate
Engine has to be 2.0 or bigger
Prefer a manual but consider auto
Petrol and no diesels i have a daily
And something a car guy would like to bring for a road trip spin once this lockdown is over.
Yes price is cheap but it is a challenge

Only thing that would tick all of your boxes would be a BMW 525/523.
Budget is too low.

Even driving a car, that inability to see someones face, that they see you at a T Junction, is highly dangerous

Those Golfs have held their value well.

I sold the same one for that price 2 years ago

It’s the large glove box and radio, makes them very desirable still.
