percivalI'm in favour of getting a new car even if we are moving house soon, because a reliable car with enough space to house book boxes and small items from IKEA will be a real bonus.
However, we will be on a shoestring of a budget, so the question is, how much will we need to pay for a car that will last us 2-3 years and will be reliable enough not to break down too much during that time?
(To make matters more complicated, I will only buy from a dealer, because my husband is not car-savvy enough to buy from private.)
My personal favourites are post L-reg Micras, Volvos and Ford Mondeos (still need to find a good reg cutoff for those, but K should do fine, I guess)
so, what do you car owners think?
