a bloke has just bought my mr2.... i could cry

Awww, don't cry for him, Rich. I'm sure his guide dog will find the passenger seat very comfortable.

Damn, no more merde jokes.
On the plus side Rich, you won't have to change the alternator again, again, again.

quite like the saab in the other thread but the motor is hors service.... (broken)

BX are cool in a retro way. I'm sure there is a problem obtaining parts for ABS cars but I could have remembered that wrong.
This will seat 2 adults and 2 children:

Looking at more modern things, how about an Audi A4. They are cheap, bomb proof reliable and if you get the right model, quick too. There is an Audi Coupe in this month's mag (1997) that the owner says cost less than a grand. It's the rag top so won't be a Quattro but I had a 1990 Coupe Quattro for a while and it was amazing fun to drive!
