wow,a 3rd car,well,i hope they all serve you well.
my is also an oldie,97.but she is still rolling,better car than this new ones they are producing,plastic.

430,that is a good price,i cant still belive how much cheap cars come in your country,here,they are still worth over 2-3 000 euros.

Wow - get you!

Must admit I saw a S reg 406 estate on Facebook last night for sale, new tyres and exhaust, 2.0 petrol and he wanted less than £500! :shock:
You must like being in the Lion club then, :lol: Hope you're happy with your Peugeot's - I am only a touch jealous.... :lol: Okay, green with envy! :mrgreen:

have 2 cars as the 1st one,the 306,the guy that sold me it had to take it back and refund me as it had been a cat b write off that had been repaired.if a car is made cat b by the insurance,it can only be sold on for dismantling.
was a shame as the guy had it well fixed and it was a great car.im actually a car body man by trade and i could vouch for his repairs.unfortunatley,i knew nothing about the legal side of bodywork at the time and the different categories.
was sold to me as a cat c car which means it can be put back on the road after a preliminary test but when i went to the dva to get the tax book,they informed me it was a cat b :(
i had drove the car on a few occasions and it went well and drove well
thats when i got my 04 406,love it
so ,needed a wee runabout car,something cheap and along comes the 106.
its very slow but its able to take me to work and back which is the main thing
