Car for around 5k

[cp500n]

I test drove a 320d today mate, I'm tempted for a change from the vag stuff.

Nice car lad. Would it not be a bit boring after the golf?

Trying to put the sensible head on for a while to get a house sorted then I'll buy something a bit quicker. The 320d msport surprised me to be honest, first bm I have driven.

I think I might have found something in Inverness ffs. Flybe fly direct from the city and it's 5 hours drive to Stranraer, anyone ever did the drive before? Never bought a car privately let alone on the mainland so a bit worrying if I don't like it or he messes me about... Any advice?

EDIT: Phone off so I assume it's gone ffs. That's 2 Mkv GTi and a Mazda3 MPS I've missed the boat on.

Risking the wrath of everyone in this thread, but I have an Ibiza Cupra Tdi here. Takes 4 adults comfy enough and has more than enough power and torque for overtakes. It's immaculate too

As for going to England, it wouldn't bother me at all. But to be sure, line up a few cars incase the.one you go.and see turns out to be bad. That way it won't be a disappointing and fruitless journey

Golf is finally away! Anyone have anything around the 5k mark at the minute that isn't in the classifieds?

Sort of sensible, and in and around your budget.

I got sorted with a passat sport from @Jas Lad so that will do me until I get the house sorted then I'll get another toy.
