Why not as long as it gets used and insurance /tax isn’t a killer.

If you get 9 months out of it and it fails it’s mot you’ll get your money back in scrap.

Don’t let it go that way though, save it

That was my first thought, Sean. I have had an estate car in the household for at least 20 years until a month ago. They are very useful machines.

Yep - I would do the same, we are using a £36k car to run back and fore the skip and it is not great after a few runs full of crap

I’d buy that and use it for every sh!tty job possible to save wear and tear on any of the other vehicles. The minute anything goes wrong you could take the wheels and battery out it, sell the rest for scrap and still in profit.

No brainier as far as I’m concerned, if it was me it’d be on my drive already :thumbsup:
