Re: cars (4.00 / 2)

Well used, yes, but usually very well maintained.

And given your requirements for a solid 4WD it's worth a thought.

I've only heard of Witham, but I'm sure there are other sources:

Re: cars (none / 1)

If you can find a place, the government is absolutely paranoid about selling a dangerous vehicle off, so they are usually fully serviced before being sold off.

Life should consist in at least fifty percent pure waste of time, and the rest doing what you please.

Re: cars (none / 1)
