I think the insurance bill and the fact she hates the idea of a corrado should be enough to divert you from you contemplated course of action!!

TBH as much as i hate to say it a pug 306 D-turbo is a cracking first car or a run around.

 

I had one up until today when the engine decided to commit suicide, but i don't care, it cost me £50 and you could just do whatever you wanted to it and it lapped it up, and doing 55mpg no matter what rev your at or what speed you going. Its got enough mod cons so its still new-ish but cheap enough to be an old pug.

 

and all at group 5 insurance. Mined got driven into by a bin truck and i just laughted it off with the driver, if it was the 'rado i'd be writing this from prison.

thats not a bad call. I have to admit though Pete; just ask the GF what she would like. By the sounds of it she wouldn't be a fast driver so having a modern car with ABS, Air Bags, etc doesn't really matter. Golf MK2 GTI, Lupo (kinda cute)................sporting fiesta :grin:
