I've not had the 'ro very long at all, but have come to realise that it was an impulse by for me, and not practical for my situation. I intended to use it as a daily runner, but, in my job, I have to cover many miles over a year. From a family point of view too, I thought it'd be OK, but I have to accept it's not.

Not sure what I'm going to rplace it with jsut yet...but am looking.

'04 CV8 on an '05 plate. 20k on the clock, quicksilver, if anyone is interested....

That's a shame but I can sympathise if it's your primary means of transport and petrol isn't getting any cheaper. The only reason I can afford mine is I use a motorbike for most of the year. If you like the car why don't you consider converting it to LPG?
