Sup,
I am about to buy a new car ( 2 000 € max.), currently living in the czech republic (central europe). I've been looking for a while but I can't decide.
Winters here are quite harsh and the surface isn't the best either, so any Italian cars (Fiats,..) are not quite an option here.
Any recommendations welcome.
(Used to have fiat stilo 1.9 JTD, but shit broke.)

Get a Lada, it's a great winter car.

And an even better car If you can find an old one with a manual choke.

You already know the answer, it's deep in your heart.
You know your financial situation. You know that times like this you need something that will be there for you, when everything else leaves.

These are the times you need to grind your teeth together, so in the near future you'll be in a better position.

TL;DR buy an old swift.
cheap parts, great reliability, nice km/l.
Buy one for 1000€, and try to save money for ~year, so you'll be able to buy some nicer.

If you want something to cope with the winter perhaps a Suzuki Jimny or Liana with 4x4. Either way I'd way buy some Japanese econobox.
There is this myth in Eastern Europe that Japanese cars are exotic, parts are expensive and hard to find and so on, but it's not the 90s anymore.
Or a Skoda Fabia, surely you can find one in a decent enough condition in Czechia of all places.

>Suzuki Jimny

You have no idea how expensive those are.

As for parts for Japanese vehicles yes, they're still very expensive and hard to obtain. Having old Japanese car in Europe is nightmare.

Most new Suzukis are not that bad since they're not really made in Japan but in Hungary.

How expensive can it be? The cheaper ones start at 1500 euros here, and the Liana 4x4 is also around that price.

Why son. Warts are really cool.
You can never go wrong with a Volk. So depending on what you're looking for, you can settle for a Bora, Vento or Passat (Golf 4 is boring, but can work). You can also go for a Skoda, since you're czech, I don't think you'll have much of a problem finding those. There is also Seat, but you'll pretty much get the same thing.

Dacia might be another answer. First gen Logans are dull and boring, but I'm fairly sure you can find a cheap one and it will be a reliable companion. You might also look for Peugeots or Twingos.

Last, but not least, Opel. They're affordable, cheap to maintain and fairly comfy. I drive an Opel myself.

By the way, was considering getting a Stilo, what's your experience with it, czechbro?

And they rust like almost nothing else, if his country uses salt on the roads in winter it will rot a poor Opel in no time.

first gen twingo.

My country uses salt on roads during winter and I have not had any rust problems with my Corsa so far.
Granted, my dad's Vectra did rust like shit.

>>17791895
They eventually started using better anti-corrosion coating but I still wouldn't trust a 90s/early 00s Opel.
>>
>>17791902
Mine's a 2001 Corsa C. No problems with the body whatsoever. Only problems I had with it since I bought it was with the computer (car didn't recognise when I took the key out of the ignition and continued to play the alarm, remote locking didn't work either, but it was solved rather quick).
