If you’ve got ten grand to spend, spend 7 on the best amazon you can find at that money and put another grand into a major service after you buy it. Keep the other 2k in reserve for a shitty day... Buy the amazon, you won’t regret it!!

Well I could stretch to 15k I reckon if I chop my car in. I'm still tempted by a LC but Shogun has caught my eye too.

Bought this today,
£1800

4litre petrol V8 manual
It's mental.
Well compared to my escort van or Honda CR-V anyway.
Done about 50 miles in a quarter tank.
Loving it!!!!

If you're towing up hills regularly you'll need the extra grunt.
Which is why I got the V8
Doing my +E licence when I get time.
Already eyeing up a 16' trailer.

Only off set by the £2-4k of timber I can move in a load.
£50 is sooooo cheap

I do think if you’re towing plenty the cost of fuel doesn’t really come into it. Running the kids to school fair enough it’ll be expensive but for work they do just work. Cheap as chips for bits and because they’re not so highly strung there isn’t much going to wrong with the engine. A good buy I reckon!

Worth a look if it is as genuine as he says it is...

? That is a beauty! Nice tip off! My brother lives in Enniskillen, so I could send him to have a look. Shame he is a magnet for crap cars and doesn't seem to have much luck when checking them out!
