What about your wagon?
Or is this a second car?
Good choice.

Don't worry - keeping PTMW!
Story is that it costs the same to commute the scoob to wife's new job as it does me Vectra diesel 65 miles to London
Therefore, get a more fuel efficient car (Mini
) & costs are more than halved. Use GSXR as deposit (
) & it works out as only £40 - £50 month more for brand new mini
- probably less as 5yr servicing is only £100
May bring it to a couple of meets

I looked at these, but when you add the options on it comes to 15k -- the same price as a Leon Cupra or an Octavia RS!!!
Like the idea of the pre-pay servicing vouchers though.

Hmmm, a car which explodes when filled with petrol, might be a slight problem!

PTMW, you and I are of the same mind!
Just thinking about getting my fiancee a MINI to go with my Wagon, and getting a cherished plate because the new ones look so rubbish... you beat me to it!
What's the spec on yours? Pepper pack I assume? Anything else?
