Hello and welcome to another edition of "Interesting, vaguely interesting, and weird cars for sale I found today", or in short IVIAWCFSIFT (doesn't that just roll off the tongue?).

This time I'll be featuring cars that cost less than $10 000 (or 32 000 z) to buy. My search has been prompted by a person who I heard bitching that he can't find a cool car for this sort of money. Let's prove him wrong, shall we?

As always I will only post cars that are currently in Poland, but not necessarily on Polish plates.

Kinja'd!!!

Probably not the greatest daily driver, but what the hell. At least it's interesting.

1999 SsangYong Chairman

Kinja'd!!!

A car based on Mercedes W124, made in Korea to look a bit like the W220 Benz. Isn't that everyone's dream?

2000 Mercedes-Benz W210 E430 4Matic Estate

Kinja'd!!!

On a slightly more serious note, this sort of car always appealed to me. You get an elegant and discreet body with a lot of go under your right foot. Few people expect this sort of thing to be packing 280 hp.

2004 Alfa Romeo 166 3.2 V6

Kinja'd!!!

It's one of those cars that I personally would not mind owning. 166s always had really excellent interiors. They tend to be the least problematic Alfas from that period too, although if something breaks repair bills are absolutely crushing.

1997 Alfa Romeo GTV V6

Kinja'd!!!

A real Alfa for someone who's really brave. Still, an interesting car for way under budget.

2006 Alfa Romeo 159 Q4 Estate 3.2 V6

Kinja'd!!!

One of the last V6 Alfas and a real beauty. I'd say one of the best looking estates of all time. Obviously, you can easily get a sallon version within budget too.

2004 Alfa Romeo GT 3.2 V6

Kinja'd!!!

Another Alfa for the brave.

2003 Audi S6 Avant

Kinja'd!!!

There's a lot of them for sale, including saloons. Some are ridiculously cheap too (although they will most likely prove to be utter money pits).

1960 Cadillac Fleetwood

Kinja'd!!!

Hmm. Perhaps not the most practical choice. Needs some work too.

2004 Fiat Barchetta

Kinja'd!!!

I've always liked this thing. No idea why. Maybe it's because it can make an attractive girl drop dead gorgeous. There's just something about it.

1977 Fiat Spider

Kinja'd!!!

Because it's small, Italian and without a roof.

1978 Fiat X1/9

Kinja'd!!!

Same reasons apply.

This Thing

Kinja'd!!!

Because you're rich and want your kid to have a lot of fun. 110ccm engine with a manual gearbox included.

2008 Ford Mondeo 2.5 Ghia Estate

Kinja'd!!!

Big boot. Discreet body. Gets you everywhere quickly. As an added bonus you look like an undercover police car so everybody gets out of your way.

2005 Ford Mondeo ST220

Kinja'd!!!

Practical, reasonably quick, nice souding engine. And you still look like the fuzz.

2000 Range Rover

Kinja'd!!!

Perfect for people who want a big and impressive car that is likely to never work right.

1985 Maserati Biturbo

Kinja'd!!!

For the biggest fans of the colour brown. Also, it has a Maserati badge.

2005 Mazda RX-8

Kinja'd!!!

Those things are flippin' great value. They always seem to be low mileage and really cheap for what they are.

2006 Mazda MX-5

Kinja'd!!!

I don't like receiving death threats so I'm including an MX-5.

2010 Lada Niva

Kinja'd!!!

If you don't like Nivas you probably don't have a heart.

1977 Mercedes 280CE W123

Kinja'd!!!

Because you're a fan of the colour brown and want a car that you will pass on to your great grandkids. And then they will be able to do the same.

1989 Prosche 928

Kinja'd!!!

Buying a Porsche like this one is the quickest way of losing all your money known to mankind. Still, at least you end up with a Porsche.

1993 Polonez Caro

Kinja'd!!!

Hmmm. Because you like the styling? Nope. Because it's quick and well equipped? Nah. Because you want to bring back the Polish 90's? Hell no. Well, at least it's in factory condition.

2002 Volkswagen Passat 4.0 W8

Kinja'd!!!

Because you want a fast car that's not really that fast, looks like a cheap car and is always broken anyway?

1969 NSU 1000

Kinja'd!!!

Guaranteed impossible to guess in the game of "Guess what car I just bought". Worth the money just for that single reason.

1970 BMW 2000

Kinja'd!!!

It's sold locally and I need to promote my region. Sue me.

2006 Lancia Thesis V6

Kinja'd!!!

A car for those who can love unconditionally.

Aaaaaaanyway. I'm tired now. I think I successfully established that there is no shortage of cars you can buy for less than 10 grand. Feel free to discuss my findings and add your own.
