Anyone got anything learner friendly? Would love a pug 205 or something similar? Needs to be reliable, cheap, easy to fix and have a touch of street cred for a.teenage girl? Any help or advice word be great. Thanks

I have a Mk1 yaris going spare.. it's almost the perfect first car, cheap, Japanese and already pre-dented!
If you're interested i think it has like 93K Miles, MOT until May
It was a colleagues, the alternator seized and he left it sat for a few months then replaced it, ive just changed the alternator so providing everything else is ok on it i'll be selling it shortly. Reg is W489 SKK if you wanted to check MOT history etc.

I'll PM you my number also if you're interested shoot me a text  Its mainly dents/scuffs/scratches all over, ill take some better pictures later this week once i give it a clean inside/out. Pictures i have now:    I'm based in Calne, Wiltshire. It owes me around £650 with the new alternator. Feel free to make me an offer I'm not looking to profit much and I'm much happier it went to somebody on here. It looks clean underneath, drives and stops fine, radio etc all works. Ive not put any real miles on it but i know my colleague used it for the last few years no issues, it may need a tyre or two for the next MOT but other than that it seems good, more than happy for you to view/test drive of course! My plan was change the alternator clean it and stick it on ebay for a grand to be perfectly honest. id take less. |

Apologies for thread hijack but I (or realistically "no.1 son & I") are also on the lookout for a beginner's retro ride in the next few months whilst he gets his tests done 🤞🤞.
Interested in any offerings, biased to M62 corridor but not averse to a road trip for something appealing 👍🏻
(I'm a medium lurker on RR & really enjoying the build threads & I'm in awe of the skills you folks have! Keep looking at my rusty but running old SWB Terrano & wondering! 🤔😁)

Would a vtr saxo float your boat? I picked it up for my lad as his first toy but hes not really interested, i may have jumped the gun slightly as he's a few years off being old enough to drive it.
There's a thread on readers rides if you fancy a nosey.

There's a thread on readers rides if you fancy a nosey. I remember the thread as it happens! Had a other look & needed/s a few things? Unless you've found time? Ultimately it's down to the ££ to buy, fix & insure Where are you roughly? PM with some info gratefully received 👍🏻 |

Open to any & all suggestions. Cheers Jim |
