After years of running diesel Citroens and having two of last three written off by other drivers decided they were 'jinxed' and time for a change, got 'Which' report out and decided to byuy a Nissan Primera SRI cos they were 'reliable, economical and fun to drive' In reality it was about as much fun as a washing machine, needed a front suspension rebuild at approx 50k, went rusty and Nissan not interested and lost value horrendously.....last straw was being over taken by Citroen AX while on holiday in France.
Went skiing to Val d'isere and walked past fantastic looking dark silver Stilo every morning, had never seen one or any adverts before but had a friend who kept going on about how much kit you got as standard,
As Golfs are to dear, i don't do Vauxhalls and Focus's are too common decided to search out a Stilo Jtd, not many about secondhand as only been out about a year, finally found one fairly locally and beat dealer down by a grand, a year old, 11.000 miles for £8500, (ex Fiat fleet although only found that out when V5 came), had it nearly three years now
Excellent performance and ecomony, brilliant on motorways and main roads, lots of standard kit.....crap on twisty roads and theres a lot in Yorkshire and all dealer i've come accross are appalling, although there must be some good ones somewhere!!!!!!!
Will have to keep it til mortgage is paid off now....another two years, think it will be having shocker upgrade when funds allow
