Hey, thought this might be good to put some feelers out.
I am currently on the look out to buy a car, not looking for anything fancy. All I want is something to get from A to B, prefer a sedan, hatchback, or minivan.
Has to have 4 cylinders, and prefer manual. Price range is $500-1000, might be willing to go higher is something good turns up. I do not care about power steering, air con, power mirrors/windows. I really just something that is a bare bones basic car, mainly so there is less things to go wrong with it.
Cheers, Moist.
If you're lookin for bare minimum, get an early 90's Geo Metro, I can't stand the cars, but the MPG is unbeatable
Never even heard of a Geo Metro before.
Where would be a good place to find one.
Craigslist or Kijiji

here's what they look like, too small for me, I feel unsafe in em, but I guess you don't go very fast in van traffic, you'll find cheaper ones that this one, but the pre 92 without the EGR are the most reliable,

here's a perfect deal one: lower Km, 5 speed manual, and the gutless frugal 1L 3 banger XD
It's a Dihatsu Charade....
I can't make it out to Maple Ridge, it doesn't have to be that specific model of car... anything like that would be good.

here's a much better choice :P
I saw a v6 78 buick riviera for 700$ looked in great condition
I'm having problems with getting my license here, gonna have to hold off until I get some paper work fixed.
If anyone is looking for a used car and wants to save a buck or ten, I suggest going to the car auction in Richmond. Adesarichmond.ca
If anyone wants to go I will go with.
I bought my car there at about 50% retail.
