Tomayto, tomahto.

 

 

This is the same spec as mine, albeit 5 years newerer.  I can confirm they are a thoroughly nice old thing to drive - ever so relaxing, but GLF when you need them to.

Hey! I resent that.

 

I'll have you know Beirut is very nice.

Indeed that is me, I am in Hull

 

Yes I'm a fairly new driver, Im nearly 30, have had my license 5 years now, and 5 years no claims with an SP30. Naughty.

 

I don't think a Beemer will help my situation. Unfortunately.

I've quite fancied an A6 Avant for a while, 2.0 petrol or 1.9 devils juice. The 1.9 pd in my Galaxy was brilliant.

I'd offer my accord up, while it's top of the range, I reckon it'd feel like a big downgrade for you.

Be more reliable than the devil's VAG, for a start

Hmmmmm not really a Honda fan, not really me lol. 

 

I am going to miss it, but I really do need something cheaper!

I've had mine about 18 months now and it isn't too bad on fuel............roughly 23 on my weekly commute and 28 on the 150 mile run to York.

 

When I first had it I tried to drive for economy - not worth it.

Its a car for smiles not a car for wallet watching where fuel is concerned, at the moment it has '310' miles remaining. Shes not too bad at all on fuel to be honest.

Hmmmmmm possible swap for Rover 75? 

 

Tourer.

Diesel

2.0

 

Sounds - just the ticket!

 

Anyone? If not I shall search on ebay!

Anyone have a 75 (Pref tourer and diesel) they wouldn't mind shuftying along and putting an S type in its place?

<goes to buy 75 touring>

2 litre, Auto pref but manual fine, with the nice seats ;)

 

make sure the tax is the cheaper band by checking reg here: https://totalcarcheck.co.uk/

 

;)

 

Such as attached image, I can afford that,

Shame you don't* know anyone with, let's say, a low-mileage Rover 820 for example, who might be persuaded to do some sort of swoppage.... ;)
