    [Help] Recommendations for a cheap car please

    I could have saved a ton of money doing it myself but I bought off a guy in Kent that imports, took the easy route but now I know a bit more about how it works I would probably have a go at doing it myself next time..mind, after 4 years I'm still loving the one I've got and can't see any reason...

    [Food] What sort of spoon do you eat cereal with?
