Alright folks looking for input on good cars to buy for commuting. Will be doing 400+ miles per week with 90% dual carriageway.
This post is preemptive as im clinging on to the hope my Citroën isn't yet dead. I tackled timing belt job and majorly fked up.
So let's hear your thoughts, wisdom and general banter. Feel free to rip into me for being a cold blooded murder of the combustion engine.
Cheers

Adaptive cruise control could be handy and a good auto box such as the ZF ones. Do you have a budget in mind?

Was thinking £1000 max. Looking at the smaller diesels since the road tax is negligible. Bit sincerely hoping the Citroën pulls through ha.
