My New Purchase (non VX)

**PORKBALLS29** · 23rd January 2011, 20:46

As above, my new purchase for Mrs Porkballs. Got a bargain I think. 2003 90000 miles, full service history, two owners from new. Last owner doing between 15k-20k hence mileage, M.O.T = £1875. Well chuffed. Going to be driving it for the next couple of months till she has passed her test so to save petrol. Lol.

i had one as a hire car about 18months ago and found it a bit top heavy going round corners, have to corner like i was driving a high van, and also found the diesel economy from the hire car poor, despite being a 1.6 diesel the hire car was barely doing 35mpg.
Terrible car was my thoughts based on the hire car!

Theres only one problem i can see with it Howard-

it's really tidy for the age. And it drove really well. I was quite surprised with how big it was inside. As said its the mrs car and its exactly what she wanted, so it keeps her of my back for a little while. Lol.
