Better the devil you know! At least you know what is wrong with your current car, get it fixed up and keep hold of some cash :)

This. You know what's up with your car, I'd be looking at fixing it and adding some choice mods to it :wink:

Obviously you will try to haggle and get it as cheap as possible as its been on for over a month,

Who knows you may get it for £1900, Hmm and it looks the part.

Good Luck. :)

im still abit dubious about it tho. i thought i owed them money but just got 5 cheques from them totalling £1700. ran to the bank and put it in. keep thinking its a mistake and they are going to ask for it back

Well if your not sure then you really need to ask them, it might come back and bite you! Believe me I know, my poor old lady was claiming the incorrect benefit when my Father died and well yh, it doesn't look too good :( So please check that this rebate or whatever is correct!

Mileage and condition dictate price in my eyes, I reckon a sub 50k miler with NO rust is well worth £1500 upwards, but like anything it depends on what you're prepared to pay. You would pay that for a Kia Pecanto!
