    download (4).jpg Decided to go for another car.:)

    My little Corsa was getting a bit small for our needs, so hunted around, and found this Automatic Honda locally to where we live.:yes:

    My Corsa bought only 3 years ago, owned by myself and one other(little old lady).
    1995 reg, only had 30k on the clock!!:wow:

    This Honda is three years old and has 32k on the clock.:dbgrtmb:

    It's a bit better for OH, more legroom, and height for him in passenger seat(he no longer drives).:old:

    So no more cramped feeling and more room for boot sale gear.:)

    Watchout Berkshire!:fingers crossed:

        Nice car Liliana! :)

        Yep, you're right Loofah! Can't sell my two privately, not a sniff and the price is in the right bracket. I begrudge part exchanging and losing so much money but that's the way it looks to be going. :doh:

              Good choice @Loofah :)

              If you need help or advice with it, I can highly recommend VWAudiForum - tell 'em fat controller sent you, and you will be well looked after :blue thumb:

              What colour/spec did you get in the end?

              Good pointer FC, thanks :)

              Black. Not entirely sure on the spec but it has parking sensors, A/C, and a media system that is quite comprehensive! Been driving it over the weekend and it's so quiet and smooth I may fall asleep at some point :yikes:
              Highly recommended to everyone
