Depend's on one's idea of a bargain
£70 for a complete donor kit ( Pinto too ) + V5 on sorn, then £100 -£ 150 on fuel .
That doesn't sound like a bad deal to me bearing in mind you will not have the agro of stripping the donor car
That said, in some cases the bargains are just a tad too far away
My daily driver was a bargain !!
3 year old Mazda, cat C write off ..... Paid £1750, worth 6K .... Cost £600 to repair.
Downside was, 22 hour round trip to trailer it home from Essex to Cornwall.
Still driving it almost 10 years later & has been a geat motor
