Don't know where you live but search autotrader for 2011 on, petrol cmax, £6-7000, shows 35 cars.
They are all 1.6 manuals, mostly 105 bhp. Not enough for you?
That might be ok. Low bhp so cheap for my daughter and i to be insured on. Build up my ncb and get something powerful. Trouble is nowadays there is nowhere to put your foot down.0 -
I have a 57 plate cmax (1.8L petrol). Insurance is only £160/year fully comprehensive, and I can easily fit a double buggy and all the food shopping in the boot.
It do about 32mpg on shorter day to day runs, and 38mpg on longer journeys.
I paid £2700 for one with 85k miles.
So far, so good... (Had it 8 months)Should've = Should HAVE (not 'of')
Would've = Would HAVE (not 'of')
No, I am not perfect, but yes I do judge people on their use of basic English language. If you didn't know the above, then learn it! (If English is your second language, then you are forgiven!)0
