Hi. Was thinking of spending £750 or so on a second hand car. Needs to be reliable and cheap to run, so less than 1.4L engine. Live in London and will probably be only be used as a weekend runaround. Any suggestions or experiences as to what I should get and where I should buy it?

definitely go for a Corsa or surprisingly a Hyundai Accent both cars are worth a look. I have owned both and they were very reliable....The Accent had the edge though better 1 of the 2. Good luck and happy Motoring.

No, you pay a mechanic to be certain what's incorrect with your automobile and to restoration it. you do no longer pay a mechanic to maintain watch over your automobile for some hours and supply it a wash and wax and an entire tank of gas. If childcare vendors would desire to "restoration" what's incorrect with your baby in in basic terms some hours purely via changing some organs and flushing some fluids, you may guess your *** that they'd be charging so plenty extra and that oldsters would pay it. A extra appropriate assessment between centers is vehicle mechanics and baby therapists/psychiatrists (who cost various hundred money according to hour), or in childcare vendors and parking garages (who cost possibly $10 according to hour). the two way, having a automobile is a good purchase while in comparison with having a baby. Pay scales are additionally related to the education and kit in touch, no longer in basic terms how long it takes to do the paintings. i'm valuable that quite plenty all of us would agree which you truly would desire to understand what you're doing to repair a automobile good, yet even a goddamn fool who would not understand **** approximately parenting can seem after a baby for some hours. Childcare would desire to be plenty extra important to society than vehicle restore, besides the indisputable fact that it is not as complicated or complicated. If childcare vendors raised their fees, too many families does no longer be waiting to arise with the money for it, which might shrink clientele and force down the business enterprise's revenue.

I bought one on ebay which was turned out to be from a dealer but it was a part ex and was too good to go in the auctions. I know a few people who have purchased throgh ebay and you get more comeback if anything goes wrong compared to a normal private sale.
