Is it REALLY worth it?
If so - Cavvy/Veccy/Cali 2.0 16v?

By no means do I need to spend £1k
Prior to the MR2 I was interested in Clio 1.8 16v
Maybe best getting a winter shitter and running it into the ground...

What's the point in getting a "winter shitter"? Really? Same goes for people that buy "winter wheels". It's funny

Yeah it is a bit odd!! Though I see the point here Id not want to be driving an MR2 in a Aberdeen Winter! Once that snow comes you'd be better taking off the wheels, fitting a couple planks of wood & start pushing.

Exactly. I dont see the point in a "winter" car either but I dont have the money right now for anything decent, so require something to get me to Uni and college

My mate used to have a metro gta, just stripped it last month cause it was rotten though! What about a mk3 astra? I would say astra or cavalier. Maybe even omega? Bound to find something in the scot ads!
