Hello!
Once again, on the hunt for another car. After returning from my trip to Rome in a £300 Vauxhall Carlton with my mate Andrew, I have decided to again use next years holiday days to adventure into the unknown. Essentially, me and the missus (Andrew isn't the missus, he just didnt want to go this year) will be doing 'Rust2Romania'. So yeah... this one will be totally different!
Unfortunately she has not long passed her test. So the dreams I had of this time taking a big v8/v6 are out the window. However I hatched a cunning plan and decided to do it in something even smaller and potentially more fun!
So I am searching for a Daihatsu Cuore/Suzuki Alto/Perodua thing. Anything of that size and nature. I should probably keep the plans for the car under wraps until I make a build thread... but whatever car I buy, I know itll be epic. I have it all pictured out.
So if you have one of these sort of cars, and need between £200 and £400 (The car needs to be on the road, mot'd and fixed for £500 or less. So it needs to be less to leave wiggle room) then get in touch with me on here. I'll keep scanning gumtree and ebay etc but hope an RR member would be able to help me out here!
It needs to be in as good a condition as possible and manual. Obviously least problems the better. This thing needs to get me to Romania and back, so can you imagine the earful i'd get if I bought a car that didnt live up to the challenge!
Anyway, enough of that. Let me know. Last year we raised something like £1700 for Macmillan. We will be raising money for charity again this time, so I really hope we can get (I can get ) what i'd like under budget!
Cheers
Jack
Oh, and I'm in Aberdeen, so the closer the better!
