The Mondeo I had a couple of years back was awesome too - wouldn't mind another one of those but maybe it's a bit big for what you're looking for?

. Their is a rover garage across from your work why not try that:-/ You cant beat a golf but it would have to be knocking on a bit for £5000 cos they hold their value. Dont go to Carcraft their prices are inflated I drive a clio That's because you're a girl!

I'll look in the Golf. Don't know a great deal about them. I'd best not say anything against them, seeing as half the people here seem to drive them, and they seem to be so popular... Wouldn't be the worst buy you could make, like people said... *stifles yawn!*

You end up paying the price of a small 2 bedroomed house for a Fiat Punto.

They are a bit smaller and they'll never break down - Toyota would be good too but they're not quite as glamorous as your Civics or Focus or Golfs.

Aah, the light burns a little brighter today! I am a bit fanatical about the Golf, but we love ours and it goes like hot snot (now it's been serviced). Fantastic fuel economy (but it is a diesel), huge boot, nice looking. As has been said though, the Focus is fab and everyone I know who's had/got one loves them. Is that what you had before? How's Sheffield? Getting back to normal? I'll look in the Golf. Don't know a great deal about them. Sheffield is fine. Still raining but the mud and silt it getting cleared away now. Very bizarre experience. Well worth further investigation, I reckon. It all looked really grim, I can't imagine how on earth people start to clean up after all that. We were in Lincoln yesterday and there was a really manky smell in the air from all the standing water. Some might say the manky smell is normal, but I beg to differ

Our friend's have got a Yaris and they're supposed to be quite reliable.

As long as you dont buy a Daewoo/Chrysler they are the Neil Warnock of cars. Buy a PT Cruiser and i`ll never speak to you again ;D .

Wouldn't be the worst buy you could make, like people said... *stifles yawn!* Just speaking as I find. Have one, love it, and considering the tanking it's had in recent months, I couldn't ask for anything more. However, I do realise they're not to everyone's tastes. Just spouting forth with my opinion (as I am prone to) ;D

It freaks you out to think the water was actually that far up!!

If I were a meaner person, I would make remarks about being a smelly pirate hooker, but I'm not so I shan't ;D It does seem unbelievable, and yet there's no end to it in sight. I take it you weren't too badly affected?

I had a Clio and although it was reliable,it was fuckin expensive to repair when it did go wrong. Got a Peugeot now and i like it. The dang bus & tram go nowhere near where the building is and I don't do vehicle with only 2 wheels and no roof! Only messing honey... A Renault Clio is quite a nice little girlie car... peppy and good handling too. Or a 206... I love them...
