All cars have risen in value, not much you can do about it if you need a car.

Are there any 3 series BMWs worth having a look at in my budget of 4K?

Apparently the bodywork is rast free. Phew.

kPATm · 14 Nov 2021 at 17:30

Yip. I noticed that. Rast is a problem though so its good to know it hasnt got any. Just asked for more pictures and the seller said no wich is pretty odd?

The previous MOTs dont look too bad TBH

It’s more important that it’s rust free though

Nah. Im not bothering with this one the seller seems pretty shifty

2008 Civic Hatchback has tonnes of storage space. Not quite an estate or a saloon but it does the job well

cjgardens · 16 Nov 2021 at 07:43

What was your last MOT like? Seems odd, it's gone from ok to a rust bucket.

kPATm · 16 Nov 2021 at 08:42

No previous MOTs have mentioned rust. Its currently waiting to get looked over again to give me a price on repairs
