Means i dont have to work in my final year at uni for money, and the car is mint (dirty in the pics) he has owned it for 6years, 100K, FSH, new MOT and Tax. Some hassle free motoring i hope
Will be slower but they arent to bad, ideal for the amount of miles i do tbh

Dunno not driven it yet (BMW or 106?) but had an 318is coupe before and was ample speed wise and this one is the later 1.9 150BHP model so should be better, not compaired to the corsa tho

Yeh, cammed, carbed and group N zausted SR that went like absolute stink for 1st car but was wrote off by a lorry!!
Then my Nova GTE, big kit,big wheels etc.
Yeh i slowly work my way up each time, buy a car for a low price, sell it for a bit more then buy a car cheap with the money i sale the other car for and slowly work my way up without having to add any money. Did this upto the astra coupe then sold it and used £4000 to go traveling

Was a combination of reasons really, was takin up to much of my time with so much uni work on, also takin a lot of money in repairs, insurance etc.. Also got to much attention which tbh ive kinda grown out of a bit, always gettin chav twats sat on my ass when all i want to do is drive normal. Also GF is at uni in cardif and the car was fookin loud on the motorway

Looks nice
One thing tho, you say "the amount of miles you do" yet you brought a car with 100k on the clock
Surely your just asking for trouble?
