• Here is a worst case scenario what should I get question.
    My Saab 95 estate has its MOT middle of the month, last year the garage said the break lines will possibly/probably need doing this year, so as the car is worth nothing, so probably not sensible to fix cost wise, what should I look for in a similar size, petrol manual for £5k max? Ulez must, family trucker camping carrier type thing. Thanks

    Edit, or pay the money as mechanically pretty good and I know the last 7 years history, but tatty round the body (mainly from the midnight hit and run).

  • Another vote for keeping it. Replacing the brake lines should be a pretty simple job, and if it's mechanically sound otherwise there's no point spending £5k on something which may need equally expensive work done on it shortly. Bird in the hand and all that.

  • Should be… I got quoted an outrageous amount to do the rears on my 5-series because the whole lengths front to back had to be bent/shaped by hand from straight tubing. 👌
