The wife needs a better car for going to work, she is tired of the beetle, wants heat, hard start in the rain, yada-yada.
I can get a '84 944 for a deal, but not a steal. The shop just wants to get their money out of it. It has new waterpump, timing belt and a bunch of other odds and ends. No milkshake (cooler seals) problems, paint Ok (but not new), fuchs, 222,000kms and seems to run good. The bad is it will need a power steering pump soon and it has been sitting for 3 years. It was just driven for 2 hrs with no problems. What's it worth? Can little kids fit in the back OK? Good car or bad car? What to look for? Anything else? Thanks Mark |

[QUOTE]I just could not live with the fact that it was one major failure away from going from a top-dollar car to basically worthless
(IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) Had an '89 S2. Loved it.... but like the man says -one major failure and you may have to drop double what it's worth. If you can get it REAL cheap and drive the wheels off it maybe..... If you just want a VW type mule I see nice VW fox's all the time for $500. |
