Acmes selling a nice Primera for under a grand
Haha I know you're joking, but it would definitely tick the reliable box with an SR20, and it will soon have a new MOT on it as well!
But I can't see OP wanting to drive a car which is two different colours, or wanting to get stuck in with paint thinners to return it to a single colour.
Plus I've been having second thoughts about getting rid... The car I was looking at was a nice 2 owner 100K mile E46 330Ci in lovely condition, full history, clean MOT history, etc... But I have a sneaking suspicion I'd miss the Primera...
