Right post up the car or car's you bought as a temporary runabout until something you wanted turned up but you just ended up keeping them for a few year's:angel:

Here are two of many i bought to tied me over until i found what i wanted:D

8 year old Alfa 156 2.5 v6 6 speed manual with only 56,000 miles,1 owner and full history all for the sum of £600:shock:I bought it after i sold my second integrale as a stop Gap until i found a sti wrx(sorry but it had to be done) but the wife ended up having it as she loved it and stayed with us for nearly 3 year's:shock:



Then there was this 4.0 straight 6 jeep wrangler 6 year old bus which had 43,000 miles 1 owner and full history for £2500:shock:I brought this to use as a back up vehicle while my trusty discovery commercial was in for suspension mod's and ending up having that for 2 year's:shock:



Feel free to post away and tell us what car you bought that at the time you had no intention in keeping but you did:D

A 1.0 litre Nissan micra. No pics of it, had it 3 years bought it new (parents made me) but it took everything I threw at it, and still worked when I traded it in for my type s, passed my test in it too

I bought this 206 1.9 HDI as a run around while my BMW (In The Background) was off the road, and as it was so good on the juice i kept it for a while :D
