I do like our old CRV, i got it cheap and 12 months on its still going
The Mrs has a new job in June and will be driving in, its about 20mile return trip and she made a good point to me on Mon.
The CRV is a drinker, 16mpg at best and with 100mile a week commute she will need £200 a month on fuel just for work, then comes the baby getting dropped off to nursery and shopping etc....
Then she says, she is now going to a prestige firm, they came in for her so she doesnt want a "banger" in the car park....bit of a snob my mrs even though we cant afford to be
I arranged a Qashqai for her to go test drive, brand new, 1.5 diesel and 70mpg
She liked it and wanted to do a deal
While im talking to the man on the phone she calls and tells me she popped into Mini on her way back and it has to be the Mini, 60mpg....more expensive
Late yesterday i negotiated a good deal on a cooper 1.6, they threw in chilli pack and rubbish like that....im happy with the payments every month and they have also given me top money for my CRV
Before i put down a deposit do any of you have any thoughts on this car?
It has got 350 litre boot and the economy is alright, its not massive but i sat in the back and it has more room than big 4x4s....
Any thoughts? Im about to call and put a dep down
Road tax is £280 and due
Servicing is £200
