Well, it has taken longer than expected, but I have finally found my first car... and it really is quite bad!
This Austin Metro has been sitting 3 minutes walk from where I live for 7 years now, and the owner of the house has agreed to let me have the car for free!
The plan is to have the car collected by a scrap merchant and try and get the usual £60. However this one may not be so simple:
1) All four tyres are flat
2) The brakes have siezed
3) There is no V5 log book
4) There are no keys
The following photo shows not only how bad the tyres are but also that the car has sat there for so long, ivy has grown around the wheels!
So, I will have to pump up the tyres (assuming they will pump up), free off the brakes and break into the car (disabling the steering lock too).
And remember, I can't spend a penny on it!
