All of them adhere to this bangernomics idea so not sure what you're complaining about. What do you expect for circa €700?

A car in need of a turbo doesn't to be fair.

For circa €700 I'd expect something that needs little or nothing done to it in the short term.

The test and fuel is what caught my eye. Would be handy for someone if they had another one that was stuffed or a turbo for it.

A recon turbo is almost the value of the asking price if I may be honest....

Thirsty but reliable once maintained properly. Looking around mid 30s in mpg. Make sure the electrics are working properly. Facelifted ones (D9's) can give a bit of electrical bother in the form of the BSI, not a difficult task to fix.

The real person to ask is Row, he has had a lot more experience with them than I've had

You sure are enjoying kicking me when I'm down

So what, I ballsed up, I put my hands up and admitted it. We all make mistakes. Well, most of us :rolleyes:

Or maybe, just maybe, someone out there has another one they crashed and have the oppertunity of making a good un of the 2? Did anyone think of that?

Its no use to the average joe soap out there who hasn't the knowhow, finances or tools to fix it. End of.

Either way, I've had enough of this stupid tantrum. I'll still keep putting up stuff regardless. I'm fairly dissappointed it's gone to this level

So put up, shut up and post some bangers up

MidlandsM

tantrum??? ehhhhhhhhhh.............?

ahhhhhhh, right, I get it, you're the one having a tantrum.......ok,

calm down love.......you're really not up to this are you?

I was replying to 166man's claim all your suggestions were bangernomics criteria
No one is kicking you or anyone else for that matter

You claimed that quite a lot of the car's he posted were scrap. One of them might be but it might suit somebody. The four other suggestions seem like fine bangernomics to me. If you don't like what bangers he posts go find some yourself. :P

Edit: That carisma is down to €500. It seems to have a fair bit of new work to it and a relatively long NCT. A recon turbo put into that would probably keep it going for another few years and doing it economically too. It's bangernomics then IMO.

You are entitled to your opinion of course and you often do post very good bangers around these parts, however as far as I can see other than the turbo needing done in the Carisma, there's not much else wrong with the others on paper, so IMO, it's wrong that you brand it all as being scrap.

ok, I'll not call them scrap then, how about muck?

Muck? You're just being childish now, they're all decent bangers for the money that's being asked, which is kind of the idea right?

The 406 for example has a 12 months NCT and tax until the end of the month. It's had a recent timing belt and it looks like alot of '03 car for the money. It's hardly muck.

MidlandsM

Junk?

colm_mcm

ah Jaysus lads, can we just stick to posting nice cheap cars?

MidlandsM

I totally concur colm mcm....

more daycent frenchness

There was a guy working for JATO who used to compile spec lists for different models, used to come to the garage to look at different models, had a black accord type R like that one, always was jealous of him having one
