What's A Good Cheap And Reliable Daily Driver?

[xALmoN]

and the size of the tank? 60L?

[llama_au]

Reasonably large, having trouble remembering as I haven't had one since I bought the '34. I never ran it dry though.

R31 skyline,can't kill em with a stick,tough as.

31

/thread

bought mine for $850 with 10 mounts reg and needed 3 tyres for a roady

runs smooth as and so comfy

My last two dailys:

1981 Toyota Corolla Wagon. $1200 with 12 months rego and roadworthy.

1984 Honda City. $1100 with 6 months rego and roadworthy.

Both 100% reliable, i have owned two of each, love them.

Starlet?

+1

I drive around in my mum's Toyota Starlet, 7L/100km is good enough for me

K11 Micra fun little car to drive too! Uses barely any petrol.

My mate had one of these (I think he still does but no rego atm) only problem with them is the max payload is 250KG! That's not good if you wanna try and get your mates in tehre too hahahaha!

Try and find a decent ET Pulsar, they are wicked fun to throw around, easy to work on and use fark all fuel.

That too...

My friend Peter, he had one for a week and it really move (i.e slighty faster than 32 GTST I had) despite blown headgasket, I offered to buy off him and he refused.

Would love to have one of these little rockets. Decent one go for pretty penny though.

R31 would be sweet!

Anything N/A will be good for a daily, Stop / Start traffic.

I drive a Toyota Corolla AE71 as daily.

Ok on fuel as it runs on a carburettor, you will have to rev the car on start up and that can use a bit of fuel.

Newer cars will get you much better fuel economy.

A Honda Jazz would be an awesome daily as they fuel consumption is great.

About $35 full tank and gets you 600+ Km's.

I found out as I was filling up a friends Jazz and said to myself "WTF?! Is that all it's going to cost..?"

[Curmi]

r31 ftw but mine gets 400km to a tank so other cars can get better fuel consumption. but then you have the posives about it....good slider, good tow car, look tuff as hell, 6 clylder nice power. and really cheap these days.

i drove one with 54*,***k's and wasnt to different from mine

[llama_au]

There's one that works near me with over a million...

[Humbla]

My son has had his 31 for 7 years,blown up 3 gear boxes,but the motor is still perfect,goes like a rocket.

[Phatboy]

Haha this reminds me of one of those $1000 pound car challenges on Top Gear. After conversion your budget is the same.

[nice 28]

Hyundai Excel?

Bought my old '97 model for 400. Cost me about 900 for rego and RWC including a new windscreen, so about 1300 on the road, and mine was only on 120,000 k's aswell.

Look for one with power-steering though. Once you get going they're fine, but parking without it gets annoying.

Bit off topic - wasn't the RB designed for competition use in mind?

Max Payload on mine is 300kg, but yeah, kind of struggles with anyone in it! I love how it has the max payload sticker on the back.
