Time for a new company car
its got to be small,sporty and quick and probably [minimal] signwritten


narrowed it down to either a VX220 03plate, 111s 02 plate and a 51 plate sports tourer (all within my budget)

got up to £22k (inc p/x) been offered circa £12k-£13k

test drives booked for this week

VX or Lotus??????
