Wanted to buy - Cheap car

[Mr. Peanut]

Ego doesn't come into it. I'd happily ride a single cylinder thumper. Fantastic fuel economy and so forth.

It's still going to set me back 1500-2000 dollars. This bike, being an air-cooled second hand single, is likely to have about 30000km left of life in it. Resale value after this point is going to be nil.

It's not going to be as reliable as a corolla, I can't carry passengers, and I'm closer to getting my car full than my motorcycle. All consumables are going to be more expensive than the car equivalent.

No more than $1500 for a banger, and up to $3000 for something that'll leave me with dignity

Classy, but cheap for a reason. Keep your suggestions coming though!
