Ok my car has gone...well..to sh*t...everytime i drive its like dodging death, although that does kinda make it fun and exciting 
For example, wheel wobble, 2 front wheel bearings, drive shaft, brake pipe, cracked wing, suspension 'issues', broken radiator, loose bumper, drinks more water than a fish etc...and thats just SOME from the FRONT...so anyway, i want a nice cheap car to run untill i go to uni in about 3 months, and if its cheap enough maybe even while i am there
I am thinking of this, kinda nice + basic inside, looks alright outside and even though its got high miles the guy has done alot to the engine...

But I am slightly concerned about the needle flickering, do you think this is a serious problem...or just a slight annoyance? How much to fix?..I'm guessing the relay is pretty straight forward from what i have read.
Also my car insurance has just renewed, roughly 4 days ago...could i cancel it and then insure this (Somehow this is cheaper to insure than my 1.2 mk2 ph1 :/...by £700 a year!!) would they charge me or could i just stop paying them and ring them and tell them to cancel it and just have it end?
Anyway let me know what you think, remember i only want this for a short time so don't suggest to me £5k cars and i am 19 so i don't want a 2.0ltr :/. P.s I am not rich :/
Thanks alot!
p.s the guy is asking around 750 for it
