    my parents bought my corsa 1.0 for £300 and spent over £600 repairing it over the 6months i had it, but in the end atleast they got more then what they paid for it at £650!

    i did the stupid thing of telling my mum to go out and buy me a car and gave hear 1500 i told her 3 cars i would want, she took my grandad whos a mechanic first on my list was a green 1.4 old civic , then it was a slightly modded vitara jeep , then the saxo , without looking at the others she went and spent 1300 of my cash on a 1.1 desire scratches everywhere leak in the boot, popped the bonnet put my hand inand pulled out a pretty big peice of sheared of metal. the jeep was 600 pound and the civic was 750 so now im left with a emty wallet and a horrible car
