This is actually a very interesting thread. Although a lot of people have said elsewhere that they are prepared to spend their last penny keeping their Scoob on the road, the vast majority seem to draw the line at borrowing money to do it. Rather refreshing in this day and age.

Flippin' heck. Is a 2002 Jeep worth 2 grand these days? I bet that thought crossed your mind before shelling out.

I know plenty of people on around 900 pounds a month for mortgages some are even 1000+. I also know people paying 800-900 in rent which to me is crazy!

Yeah, it's prob worth about 4k so it did cross my mind !! I think it was down to bad servicing before we owned it ie. just driving it through the workshop
We went next door and had a look at the Dodge Nitro, nearly got it but just stopped ourselves
Thing is it's worth more to us coz it's low miles and contrary to the big bill has never let us down.
Easy come easy go !!
