I desperately need a new daily driver
 

I would like to get a hatchback because I take allot of musical equipment around and i just like having a small car. my limits about 4 grand. I tryed to look for EG's but thats not happening all of the ones ive seen are either like 3 grand and have a good 170k miles on them, there far away, or they have a ton of miles on them. Ive been looking at Volkswagens and it looks like i can score a 97-98ish golf for that much and they have lower miles and its a newer car so its less to worry about. does anyone have anyother sugestions? no EF's im not paying 2500+ for an ef, some people try to sell standard hatches for 4 grand here. any imput would be appreciated, thanks.

I haull 6000 dollars worth of equipment to shows at bars neer the ghetto. I need somthing i can lock up so all of the crack heads sniffing around for dollars dont think they hit the daily crack lottery. a truck would be nice to haull motors and stuff around in but i can use my dads for that.

buy my car, fix it, and you'll be well under your $4k limit and you'll still be rockin a honda :6

i cant fit my speaker cabinents in a 4 door ;). plus i already have a car i can fix and drive, i just droped a motor in it and it turns out the wheel bearings are bad after sitting for so long and some other things. and thats pretty much just going to be my project car.



Just a little example of why i cant afford a civic hatch around here

take out the back seats :P

Re: I desperately need a new daily driver
 

a VW is the absolute last thing I would look at then. so would any civic for that matter. especially if you are worried about people stealin ----. a civic is just what theives want...especially if they are worth something in your area, shows they are in demand....

a truck with a cap....still my $.02
