I think I wanna join the cheap wagon club

I put a thread about my son cracking up his car the other day. One option for him and his fledgling band might be membership in the cheap wagon club, which will also teach him a little about maintenance.

So if anyone spots anything pls let me know.

I might consider a W123 just to make sure he doesn''t speed ()
Thanks

well, if you wanna join the CWC you're gonna HAVE to get a 123... no way are you going to find a 124 wagon under 1K... unless it's a total ratbag.
I have two wagons going up for sale, I don't think either will be CWC material, but my 85euro TD may... it's got rust.
I'll think on it.

if you really wanna be sure he doesn't speed, you could get him that 240 auto... THAT has a 0-60 time of like two days...
