The Panda Nut
Nutty about Pandas Infected by Panda virus and OPD
Suzuki Swift 1.2 4X4?
Alfa Giulia?Well, after much debate my better half has decided what she wants.
Horay! (er not quite).
She's thought about it long and hard and what she wants is ................... my car!
Not one like it, but mine
So the swap on offer is:
She gets my well cared for, one owner, low mileage Antarctica 4x4 TA.
I get her one careless owner, low mileage, rubbish filled, never cleaned, bird shiite streaked 1.2 Lounge.
I wasn't at first best pleased with the deal until it was explained I will also still get fed, clean clothes, get to carry on sleeping in the same house/bed and another bed related perk.
So it looks like I'll need to find a new car!
Honda Jazz? Small, sensible and apparently religiously reliable. That's my backup choice from a new Panda
It's also great value. I think it looks better from the front though - The rear end is, well, odd - not sure what they were trying to do... But quirky Japanese appeals to me so I can see why you'd choose one.Or, the new Ignis. Top spec gives pretty much everything, and the Automated Manual Transmission is apparently a vast improvement on earlier iterations of this system, according to Indian reports. And although there don't seem to be any on the road yet my Suzuki dealer says it's now their best selling car, with the Vitara now second. If interested I would wait until the infotainment system from the Vitara arrives though, supply problems mean that at the moment they are being delivered with a standby Panasonic system, which isn't as good. And our Ignis is built in Japan too
Naughty of me perhaps, but the Ignis is soooooo cute, and sensible too.
I'm not at the correct age for a Jizz, there's some time to go yet.
I've never seen one driven by another under the state pension age!
Though I admit that an auto 'box becomes more tempting with each passing year.
I'm keeping my eye out for something, but she's ruled out my idea (my best so far) of a Merc Sprinter fitted with LazBoy's, bar and plasma screens!
There's no rush at the minute, got a couple of trips to sort out and pay for first and it could be Mrs Goudrons will be changing jobs soon.
This might come with the use of a car, but it will definitely come with the use of more cash!
Thanks for the update. Maybe get money off your mother in law and pay finance off. Then just update the V5 doc. Is it worth having bumper and alloys done, I haven't but I own mine. Look forward to Italian Panda pics if you have any. I'd ask if anyone at Seat head office running around in an Ateca with a few miles on. Still get PCP with cheap finance. Hope you get something nice.
