Soldato
Having commuted to work during the last two winters by motorbike, and was freezing riding to work this morning at 06:30 (and it’s not even minus temperatures yet)….I’ve decided that I really can’t be dealing with a good 4 months of hell.
I was going to garage my Falco and use my Fazer during the winter, but have decided to sell the Falco, keep the Fazer for the warmer days & buy a little car for the winter.
I’m hoping to get around 3k for the bike, but want to spend as little as possible (£1000-1500). Need to bank some pennies for maternity time as my wife is pregnant.
I’m not after anything fast, thinking maybe a 1.2 max, running costs are paramount. Something that handles fairly well, has a solid build quality and maybe a good used spares base. A CD player/AC/Electric windows good too.
I'll be doing a 45/50 daily commute Monday - Friday. Don't need speed as cars only seem to do 30-40 on the roads I use.
Know absolutely jack about cars, wondered if anyone could point me in the right direction that would be much appreciated!
Cheers
Scott
