Soldato
Thinking of the future and money, I'm starting to think about a cheap, sensible car to run. Budget would roughly be £3k or less, with importance on reliability (don't want unexpected bills).
Also:
- Small wheels for cheaper tyres
- Small petrol engine for mpgzzz and less problems (hopefully)
- Cheap tax and insurance
- Still needs to look nice and be nice to drive
This spec screams Ford Focus, but I've had two now, and want something different. I also feel that the low end focus lacks character and looks.
So far I have picked the Honda Civic "sport" LINKY - I use the sport term loosely as it's not really sporty, but I suppose it does have "sporty" looks. I prefer the look of the Civic to the Focus too. However, they do seem more pricey, which is a bad thing. I need something that is going to last for ages, and cost pennies to fix if anything goes wrong. The example above is now 10 years old and £3.5k seems a lot for it's age...
