You only live once. It's worth a go, even if storing a car like this is a problem (a probable theft magnet).

Yes, theft magnet indeed. Still worth a look though. I've just watched a video of the same model Mercedes, but with a grey interior which to me is nowhere near as nice as that cream/beige one in the car above.

For your type of use Accy, there are three things you should be looking at -

Small
Japanese
Petrol

Something like this Joe?!

Yes I know I said earlier in another motoring thread that with my monocular vision I'm better off with small cars, but look at this!😎

It's in my price range and it's only about 2.5 miles from where I live. I might go and have a look at it tomorrow and ask if they'd take my Fiat 500 in part exchange.😉

What's the VED cost on that?

He said Japanese! The K13 was made in India for the British market, but also China and Mexico. It was probably the worst K series Nissan ever made, was a poor seller, and those in the know tend to give it a wide berth.

What's the VED cost on that?

He gets the mobility element of PIP, so £00.00.

What's the VED cost on that?

A crazy £430, but according to a bloke who has a newer/later model he's is a staggering just short of a grand!😯
