Originally posted by Ruprect View PostThanks for all the suggestions. I didn't put ford because they (IMO) are a bit cheap and crap and likely to break down. Of course I might wrong, but I'm not going to buy one.
Also, I perhaps should have been clearer - I just meant new for me, but it will likely be a used car. budgetting 10-14k.

Originally posted by Sysman View PostAgreed. I voted for Audi, but now you mention the Legacy, that would get my vote if in the poll. It's 4WD, very reliable, and less likely to be a target for thieves/vandals.

Legacy - ramraiding Waitrose.
Forester - ramraiding Millets.
Impreza - ramraiding Threshers.
B9 Tribeca - ramraiding continents.
Justy - ramraiding pillows.Comment

I'd be seriously tempted by a cheap Roller, although we have discussed this on CUK before and there are various downsides. For example driving one makes you look older (which never occurred to me before someone mentioned it), and of course servicing and petrol costs a packet.

But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”Comment
