Nothing flash for me, Y reg 1.2 Renault Clio sport. Bought that for £2,700 last august on 41k, racked it to 54.5k now without any problems. Bit small and i'd like something a tad bigger, but for now it does the job. 8)

Lol Matt, I was thinking that's a bit steep too!

I like my car, it's a 04 plate 40k miles Toyota Celica with the premium pack which I bought in Jan for £5600, value has actually gone up a bit now due to the fucked nature of the used car market, definitely my favourite car I've owned by a mile.
Bored of the grind.

It was actually £2300 list price, but i had to buy a new set of keys (£200 for 2, what a joke), and get the timing belt/water pump etc changed when id had it which set me back another £250. I thought £2300 was a good price, it was and still is immaculate, very low mileage for a car that was 7 years old. I'd still get £1500 odd selling that on again as the used car market has perked up a bit with no-one being able to afford new ones. 8)

it'd be boasting if this was a hair dressers forum, as we're mostly blokes on here I'd think it was a bit less to be pleased about :wink:

Books at 1200 assuming average miles, good condition etc.
