    They are good cars, especially if you want to learn to work on something.

    Mine gave me fits at first but I eventually sorted everything out; old VWs break sometimes but were designed to be repaired, not thrown away.

    1983 ZK Fairlane, white, 6cyl, 76,000km 1 owner back in 2003. Paid $1000 registered for a very tidy unit but being an unappreciative kid I didn't look after it as well as I should. Dropped in a 302 in 2004, which was fun while it lasted and kept it up until last year when I ripped out the good gear and sold the remains to the wreckers for $100. I now drive a tidy, 1 previous owner XE Falcon that the Fairlane's parts have found their way into, so in a way the old girl lives on lol...

    1972 VH Chrysler Valiant. Got her for $350 in the early 80's. She was missing her windscreen wiper motor ( which I didn't notice until I was on the freeway and it poured down raining). Had velvet velour thumb tacked on all internal panels. Girlfriends door couldn't open from the inside. I had to car dozens of water bottles to feed the radiator. I was 17 living away from home and absolutely broke, so could never fix her up, but she went on and on and on. I still have fond memories of that car.
