Car hunting

Today I have been looking at a few different cars that i've liked the look off, honda accord diesel, ford mondeo st and the saab 9-3, and have to say for cars that are only 5 years old the condition of everyone I have looked at as been a real eye opener to how mint my supra is.

 

I look at my car and just to see a tiny chip I wouldnt be happy, but these cars where just full of scratches everywhere, clearly not looked after at all.

 

Goes to show what a 13 year old car is capable off, im getting pi**ed off now looking as I havnt got much longer to find a good car. Might even start to consider the fabia vrs diesel or a focus diesel now

I know what you mean, but you have to understand they were used as daily drivers, cars to go to work and constantly parked in car parks. The place where most people pick up dents as no one cars when opening their door!!!

 

I know I knew that what I was looking for wernt going to be 'mint' condition, but seriously paint was peeling, they looked like they have had some dodgy touch up spray jobs, literally scratches on every body panel

Out of the range you are looking for the Saabs tend to be more cared for don't you think?

 

Where you are a perfectionist, and a car lover, these people just see it as a tool for A-B, unfortunately.
