Hi!
I have a long-standing interest in the A2 and now find myself with an excuse to purchase one. I'm looking for a second car for our small family of three. Its main duties will be a very short daily commute to work for my wife, the weekly shop, and running our son to nursery and back. Ideally looking for a 1.4 petrol. It doesn't need to be in mint condition cosmetically as not only will it be the first car my better half will own and drive daily, it will also be occupied on an almost daily basis by our often grubby fingered offspring. As it will be used to ferry about the two people most dear to me, I would prefer to buy one that I can be reassured has been owned and looked after mechanically by somebody with a keen interest in the model.
If there's anything I should know on our quest to find our first A2 please treat my level of knowledge as 'straight-up beginner'. Aside from the .gov MOT history check website becoming my latest browser bookmark, I haven't much in-depth knowledge of what to avoid.
To this end, if anyone on here is selling a 1.4 petrol that can be had for sub £1500 I would be very grateful to hear from you. I'm based in the West Midlands but happy to travel to view prospective purchases.
Thanks in advance!
Andy
