Agree with this. Last good car they made. Like people putting them back on road rather than scrapping. Why I didn't mind welding mine and the mrs ones.
A lot of them now will start failing MOTs majorly (unless of course they have been looked after by enthusiasts like us lol) on things like suspension and rot but the way i look at it, Even if you have to do a complete overhaul on the suspension, Your looking at £500 max. Then, you have a car that is good to go for another 5-10 years. In my eyes, thats more of an investment rather than scrapping it for £100, spending £1000 on a new car then next mot, that needs more work doing.
