You have specialist websites and companies that sell ex lease cars.they all have good service history, checks and you get a warranty when you buy. You can get a good car with loads of life in it between 2-8k

A cheap second hand car if you don't want anything fancy is the ford fusion. Old people buy them because of the high seating position and step.

So they make excellent buys as they have had soft use. Not fast or flashy but practical good on insurance and running costs.parts dirt cheap

I’ve got a 11 year old ST focus.

Didn’t pay much for it last year as I have a small budget.

But I love it it’s, fast and lairy

Blacked out windows and leather recaro seats.

My local garage ruined the gearbox not long after I got it. by forgetting to refill the gearbox oil after I asked them to change it at a service.

But now it’s fixed and couldn’t be happier.

53 plate Fester here. Big engine. (1.4)

I spend between £300 and £500 each year on maintenance. Family owned since it was 6 month old.

There are a few stories to be told, but it doesn't break down, I've never failed to get home.

When it does need fixing, parts are cheap.

I don't drive it hard so despite showing 136,000 miles, it still drives "like new".

Because the tyres alone are worth more than the whole car, I don't get angry / heartbroken / dismayed / gutted when somebody dinks it in the supermarket car park.

Don't get me wrong, I hate the car with passion. It's not "my" sort of car. It doesn't do dramas or crisises. It starts first turn, never needs a jump, makes funny grinding noises and just keeps on bloody well going.

My ideal garage would be filled with a Transit Tourneo (as a stealth camper), Triumph Stag V8, MGB GT (rubber bumpers), MGA, Alfa Romeo 2.5 diesel and a Maserati Bi-Turbo.

Until I can afford those, I'll make do with the 53 plate Fester 1.4. The heated windscreen is fantabulous. (There's a story behind that though)
