A car in an empty pocket

When deciding on a car for a few thousand zlotys or even cheaper, you have to take this into account, that it cannot be resold after several months of use, which may end sooner.
Contrary to appearances, not much can be bought for two thousand zlotys, even though the choice is rich. Western modern cars offered at this price are mostly defective vehicles, which will soon make themselves known and exclude further exploitation. It is not difficult to find e.g.. a well-running Citroen with a completely corroded chassis. Whatever
Repair of the suspension in a car in such condition is impossible for technological reasons. Lots of major repairs, which are necessary to run the old ones, but relatively modern cars are possible, but unjustified for economic reasons. Therefore, having limited financial possibilities, it is worth focusing on unfashionable ones, but simple and cheap to operate Western vehicles.
Because all cars from that period break down, it is good to consider the cost and availability of parts. Even though you can buy almost anything, German-made cars and these pose the least problems in this respect, which are the most. There is no problem with spare parts for Volkswagen or Opel and they are cheap, though on the other hand their quality is low. Manufacturers of silencers and consumables for all models advertise on the Internet. That is why cars of this type are inexpensive, even if they are in good technical condition. A rare car is a risky purchase, even if many parts are borrowed from more popular cars.
Regardless of the final choice, however, it is worth being aware of, that authorized service stations rather forgot about old cars. Without basic knowledge of mechanics, it is not worth risking even a small amount of money. Troubles and unnecessary expenses (np. OC) will outweigh the benefits of owning a car. It's worth counting well: compulsory insurance fees, registration and possibly parking are the same as in the case of much more expensive cars. Two thousand will grow to four very quickly, and the ride may end after just a few thousand kilometers. Sometimes a cheap purchase ends up being the most expensive.
