The tattiest, cheapest car that does the job.
"The job"
- It has to be reliable and cheap to run.
- There has to be enough room for all the junk I drag around with me when I am going to Guides / orchestra / outdoors-y stuff
- It must be comfortable for long journeys on the motorway
- I need to listen to music for these long motorway journeys
- Cost the minimal amount to run.
With these key points in mind I made the executive decision to purchase a
Citreon Xantia 1.9TD SX
A tank-like vehicle, with the looks of a roadkill rabbit, metallic snot green in colour and the performance of a sloth on weed.
However, it has hydraulic suspension and a groovy little leaver that allows me to raise or lower the suspension... I'll never grow tired of that!  ____________________ Avast! Pirates ahoy!

Going for a shiney new-ish one?
I've got a 1.8 laguna rn (bottom of the range), that I quite like and has kept going for the last couple of years well enough. Could do with a bit less body roll, though. |

'92 Merc 190E runs on LPG, running costs equivalent to 65+ MPG
Cheaper to run than my bikes
Photo is 3 years old....unfortunately not quite a shiny looking all my own fault
I will rectify it! This is the longest I have owned a car and am still not fed up with it; a great car  |
