bodywork wise rust, check - chassis rails and under neath boot floor, the actual boot floor for crease's in case accident damaged.

engine wise get it started from cold and let it get warm, look for any smoke once warm, check water bottle for oily water.

That is isn't modified. Likely to be a complete hunk of junk.

As low powered as possible.

It's reliable and won't cost too much to win.

You asked what you should look out for in a 1st car.

That is isn't modified. Likely to be a complete hunk of junk.

I think you like the attention from everyone on here will. Why have two threads about the exact same thing? Why not add the first post in this thread to the one you already have about your 1st car?

I'm not annoyed by stupidity as long as it's not affecting me. But attention seekers are one of my pet hates.

People saying 'doyle you fucktard' doesn't count as a reply in my book, let's see how you get on. Good luck though.
