Was just thinking to myself, having got my 190E MOT'd on Saturday, what a good little car it is for such a little amount of money. It's not perfect and I never will expect it to be. But it still looks smart enough and that's the beauty of cheap little cars - you don't mind
With the price of scrap so high these days I think really cheap cars are harder to come by, probably also as a result of the scrappage scheme a year or two back.
I think the cheapest car I can remember buying was a Series 3 Daimler Sovereign that I bought for £70 some years back. Even had 6 months tax, two brand new tyres and 1/2 tank of fuel
This 190E will cost more to tax than the car + the bits i bought cost, which isn't a good feeling
Ok - I did the work it needed myself (cylinder head gasket + a few other jobs) so labour was free - but at least it's been saved from the scrappy
How about you guys? Cheapest car or cheapest MB that you've bought? Excluding 'mates rates' and the like!
