When a simple one day job turns into a week-long project... Bonus points if you can guess the model.

Cheap cars can be hit or miss. My cheap car has a lot of miles, but no rust. It also has no power steering. The pump was leaking bad so I just took the belt off. I can live with it for now. One day, I'll get my ass in gear about it lol

Ironically the cheapest car I ever bought was also the most reliable I've ever had. It was a 2002 Mitsubishi Colt/Mirage (not the ugly one) for just 200 Euros. Still miss it.
