Hi,
Im 18 years old, I currently drive a Ford Telstar (yes its embarassing) and am a Pizza delivery driver / Computer technician.
I drive about 400 - 500 a week just getting to my main job, and deliver pizza's at night, and do another 400 - 500 a week for that.

Would be looking at leaving the pizza job when i get a decent car.

Anyway I've been keeping my eye on astina's for a while, private and dealer sales.

And about the only decent one I've seen (that wasn't a pre-hooned,trashed crapbox) is at a local car dealer for 10,900, 74 thou on the clock.
thats a BA, 1994. most I've seen are between mid hundreds and low 2's.

My telstar has done 280,000... we think... we're not sure if its been counting its whole life... LOL.

Just wondering what a fair price for a fair astina is (manual.. must be manual!, and a BA, Astina, Astina H/top or protege I dont really mind, preferabley the 4 but yea, again I don't particularly mind)
and what a fair trade price would be for my tely... or if I should bother.

Also looking at basic mods, mainly sound, intake, exhaust and suspension.

had a brief look over the astina today, and it appeared to have 5x7s front and rear?

Is it possible to chuck 6 inches in there front and rear?

Hows running cable along an astina anyway, along my tely it was easy to run 4 guage and to run the RCA's on the other side.

Um yea, any imput would be great!

Thanks!
