  • LF: Cheap car (~$1500)

    So my gf needs another car for $1500 or less. I've been looking on Kijiji and AutoTrader, and I've seen quite a few MK3s in that price range but most of them need work or have quite a it of rust. If it doesn't need too much work then I could do it, but if the parts add up to more than $1500 then it won't work. Open to anything really but I'd prefer VWs haha

        Thanks guys, I'll let her know. I think she's hoping to upgrade a bit from her '95 Accord

            Don't think $1500 will get her very far then. MK2's and MK3's really arent an upgrade IMO

              It's not much of an upgrade, but then again it wouldn't take much for it to be... Her Accord was pretty beat up when she bought it. I actually found a pretty good deal on an 03 Subaru Outback, so I'll see what happens with that

                Make sure that the headgaskets arent shot. Huge problem with all the boxer engines in subarus, thus why you can find them for so cheap

                  Oh yeah, for sure. The ad said it had a recent mechanical inspection, so if that checks out then I think it's a good option

                    The autos aren't great either. Only the 2.5 engines have hg problems. I'd be a little scared buying one that cheap. I've been looking for one myself for a reliable winter car
