A Cavalier !!!
Not sure what to do with my car situation having sold the M3, so i bought a Cavalier TDI from my uncle in law. I like having cars like this cause you can park anywhere and not worry about parking dents etc. It does 40+ mpg can maintain 90 mph up and down hill, 5 up or on my own - costs pennies to insure and i can service myself - bonus.
After the winter i will get a proper car again, although i fancy a hot hatch - and i am still wanting to change the Mrs' Volvo for a 850 R manual, although she wants a Freelander :eek:
Any thoughts on the Clio 172 Cup ? i would love a modern hatch but with the least amount of modern gismo's possible. As far as i am aware the cup has no leather, roof, ABS or EBD etc. Just 2.0 n/a and 1100kg kerb weight !!
Still a few months away but you have to plan for the future ;)
