Will it be going straight to frag to save the dick heads arguing when you are done?

Just make sure you lose money on it.


Less annoying tag line.

I've been doing a great job of losing money on the last few cars I've sold. I'm not sure there's really any profit in the stellar, I paid £750 for it and although it drives well I think a lot of typical classic car snobs would be put off by the patina and also the fact that it's a Hyundai.
The other stellar is a bit cheaper but needs a bit of welding, I think I could break even on that one if I was to fix and sell...
I was planning on buying it but to use rather than to try profiting from.

This one used to share a drive with the Stella. £200 wobber price with the rough wheels. Pretty sure you could make money as the engine should be worth that alone to stock car guys.

Made some progress on getting my petrol 305 mot'd this week, new wheel bearing, couple of bits of welding, nothing major.
Sold my diesel MK3 Golf and will be looking to sell my petrol 205 shortly. I'm on the lookout for a winter beater, something cheap, good bit of mot and most importantly good heaters and ability to defrost the screen quickly.
