Hi all, does anyone know where to buy a reliable but cheap car, ideally an estate, I’ve got a £2k budget but can seem to find anything at all

Any help would really be appreciated 

Cheers

Paul

A quick look on milanuncios for cars in murcia up to €2000 brings up 3450 listed....be vary wary of private sales as there could be debts on the car that you only discover when you go to register it.

The transfer costs are usually to be paid by the buyer, so allow for this.

This sort of purchase would be difficult in the UK, trickier here especially if you are not fluent in Spanish. Use a gestor for the paperwork, one who specialises in motor transfers.

Hi first thing you must stay away from Specialist Vehicles in San Javier

I bought a € 2,950 car from them two weeks later the engine blew up I am without transport for over a month now  

and they will not respond to my e-mails

Advise for € 2,000 you are not going to get much try and up your budget I have found a Ford Ka 2014 with 67,500 K for € 4,900

also very cheap is the "strange" Twizzy and the market has many C1 please note the seller country the transfer tax a scam here is to try and charge around € 100 + for a € 40 transfer fee

So go very carefully     and do not part with your money   unless you feel it safe to do so       Dave

From our buying research it looks like you would be lucky to get much for 2k, even bangers/wrecks seem to go for more than that. We thought 4/5k would do us and ended up raising the budget to 8k to get something a bit better that we would trust to last us.
