So, with the recession & the car market on its knees, there are some amazing bargains out there, but could you find a car which you would actually want to drive for the price of a TV set - a round £1000 :p Bring out your credit crunch bargains!

Only rules are that it has to be as cheap as possible, has to have an MOT & be advertised as roadworthy, and must be something which you would actually drive if you had to!

My choice is this beauty:

Would be perfect for me, what a beauty!
 
I would have this:

The last of the really good Mercedes the W124, and I'd have it as a coupe just because they have a great shape. This car is blessed with a 3 litre straight 6 enigine with 215hp. £900 for a good working car gives you enough money to get the silly silver graphics peeled off as well.

Oh and the G reg Jaguar XJRs are not anything special, they are a standard car with suspension I think and sports kit by twr. The supercharged XJR came out in the next shape!

Probably another BMW of some form, maybe a LS400, or a Mercedes 190E.

Alternatively a Dolomite, something like an 1850HL Auto again, really nice car to use on a daily basis.
