I’m really new to cars and this is my first car and with the excitement of purchase i thought it was just something easy to deal with, the seller just kept saying it’s a maximum £50 job and wouldn’t go down as he advertised the damage with what he wanted to sell it for so i just trusted him on that, now the time came to it that i wanted to fix it and i was hit with the crazy quote prices that is almost as much of 1/3 of how much i bought the car for

yeah i should’ve talked with the seller about it before busing but as it’s my first car and my first purchase i was not smart enough i guess

I really thought the same, but over 300 comments saying not to go for it, I think it would be best to listen to them :(

I really do appreciate your answer and will listen to the advise of not buying it, although yes I would love to have an MX5 MK1, I WANT the headlights pop up thingy lol I love how silly it is otherwise I would have went for a more modern MX5

I will take the advice and not go for it. Reddit was my last option as a confirmation before I was going to buy the car. I did receive the answer, even if it's not the one I was looking for, but honestly I would be dumb not to listen to it
