They will last 500 miles. km or more. Cars under 10 PLN 3 [part]

The third part of a large overview of the used car market, with a high mileage of 500. km does not bother them too much. We are looking for models that are extremely durable, as well as those where low repair costs make it easy to extend their lifespan. What can you buy up to 10 thousand. złoty? 

We have already covered Audi and BMW models, as well as cheap Japanese ones, two models from Italy and one Opel. In total, I have already described 11 models, and now another portion. 

  • Lot 1 – cars up to 10 zlotys
  • Lot 2 – cars up to 10 zlotys

THE MOST DURABLE CARS UNDER 10 EV [PART 3]

Peugeot 307 – surprised? Well, he's a strange Frenchman in an unexpected place. The truth is that the worst of the 307 is behind us. Today this car shines when you combine features, durability and price. Moreover, there are 7-seater versions. With an HDi diesel engine under the hood, in any version, the service life of this car is not limited. Because even if the engine fails, which is more common in 1.6, these units can be bought literally by weight. What's more, the high corrosion resistance really contributes to keeping the car in good condition. And the frequent breakdowns, paradoxically, mean that today's prettier 307s look more polished than new ones when they left the showrooms. 

Reanult Scenic (II) – this car may not be famous for its reliability, but everything is in order with durability. However, combined with low maintenance costs, the car can last a long time. Interestingly, it works great with the 1.9 dCi diesel. Yes, faulty, which already in the second generation lost part of its defectiveness. What's more, it can be repaired cheaply, so - in the event of a larger defect - you'll spend less on replacing the bushings and shaft than in the much newer 2.0 dCi on the injectors themselves. I would also like to emphasize that if the Scenic is too small for you, there is something bigger - the Grand Scenic. 

Seat Leon (I) – has already been correctly described on the occasion of the Audi A3 8L. Nothing to add, nothing less - with a 1.9 TDI engine, it does not break down, but for lovers of gasoline there are options for 1.8 T or 1.6 MPI. If you're looking for a car with more power, you'll find it easier to buy a Leon. What's more, these sturdier seats are usually more cared for than double turtlenecks or an octavia. An interesting fact is that these cars with the highest mileage tend to be beefy 1.9 TDIs with factory 130 or 150 hp, often even after tuning. 

Skoda Octavia – I could write “see. above”, but this would not be entirely true. First, octaves are usually used by a very different group of buyers, which can be divided into older, often very caring about their cars, and those who treat them like a wheelbarrow and repair only when they stop driving. . Secondly, Octavia has been in production for much longer, so finding more recent vintages is easier than 2005. However, for the youngest and most beautiful specimens, you need to allocate an amount closer to 20, not 10 thousand. zloty. You can also add that the Octavia had no engines, except for 4-cylinder ones, like the Golf or Leon. 

Subaru Forester (I), Legacy (II and III) - I apologize in advance to the purists of the brand that I threw these models in one bag, but honestly - what are the differences, except for the purpose? Nothing at all. They are from the same period and can be bought for the same money. Of course, there are some technical differences, but in terms of operation, these are the same cars. It is worth choosing a more expensive one, for a dozen or two thousand zlotys, but you can easily buy something up to 10. zł to drive. If the engine is working properly, without a check, the floor is sticky, you will drive around the world and sell without much loss. Of course, this is not an armored Volkswagen, from which, in the event of an engine failure, buying a new one is cheaper than a good technical inspection in a Subaru. But in any case, in my opinion, these Japanese should have been added to the list.
