This: Wouldn't say its a gay's car but it might be an old fart's. I'm not ready to retire to a bungalow in Hove yet.
Its a 4X4 (just). They go quite well, quite cheap to run and they're screwed together properly. They can rack up 300,000 miles without dissolving or going wrong. That's the thinking anyway...
Agree with all of them things, and one other bonus with it, you'll get offered loads of cheap stuff driving one as folk will assume you must be 65+
On a different note, I've had my new Qashqai for a few weeks now. Park assist* is just black magic and works 1st time, every time It gets the car into spaces you would not believe. * Queue all the usual suspects calling me a girl as real men don't need such assistance.
No such piss taking from me Rob, our Golf has it, friggin awesome Lane assist too with RADAR cruise. Practically drives for ya
Can't afford new cars. Spent all my money on new bikes. Ten year old (at least) SUV it will have to be. The Honda comes with a waterproof undertray beneath the boot floor and a folding picnic table. Essential equipment in my view. After all, you never know when you're going to need to set up a bric-a-brac stall or eat cheese and cress sandwiches in a lay-by on the A 40. Its either that or a 2.5L X-Trail. (The diesel is shite - likes to eat its own turbo and intercooler - and the 2.0L is boring). Possible slightly more gay if less old-farty than the CR-V but it'll probably fall apart sooner.
