For the 3k range, could I do worse than something like this?

A 1.6 MK2 with an Auto box, that must be horrible.

As a day to day car it's no worse than anything else, feels more sluggish than the mk1 version but not so bad that it's a bad car.

It's a good car with a rotten engine and transmission combination.

You can do a lot better than an LX!
