Well, if I get a loan I could probably go for a few thousand, I don't know. People are willing to lend you a hell of a lot these days. In terms of purely hard cash, though, I'd be looking at about £500-£1000 for an old banger.
The tactic of buying an old car and driving it into the ground is probably not the way for a happy life, but past experience has made me wary of signing up for long-term payment commitments...
What I'm looking for is a reasonably economical car with at least four doors, and good potential boot space (ie, seats may be folded down to allow for kit), not too big but with a good roomy driver's seat. This allows for the considerations of (a) LARP, (b) Ferrying friends around, (c) commuting to work and (d) being a lanky bugger. I am informed that the category known as the Supermini would be most suitable.
