seeing as it appears to be the season for new motors on here
picked up this little sweety on Friday
Past her Council inspection on Monday, Plated and radio installed Tuesday and did her first shift today
surprisingly for a Peugeot she now has covered 250 miles and nothing has fallen over and she hasn't seen the back of an AA truck yet. i'm impressed
£11500 new from Cab direct. cracking little things for the money. although ask me that again in 3 years time when its fell to bits with a mere 150k on the clock.
but to be fair its a cracking little engine 1.6hdi with 92 horses is hardly going to be breaking any land speed records and at under half the power of Vectra it replaced it does feel a tad slow. BUT plenty of low down torque means its cracking round the town and certainly capable of sitting happily at legal speeds on the motorway. mirrors and windows move around with electricity it has a cd player and I can plug my ipod in so all the basics are covered. seats are comfy enough(had a nigh on identical one on hire for 8 weeks previous to this being bought after the Vectra was written off).
strangely the punters seem to quite like it, quite roomy in the back (almost superblike levels of leg room ) perhaps a wee bit high for some of the old biddies getting in and out though,
Seats all flip out as well so it easily converts into a small van for those trips to Ikea with the missus as well
All in all, have to say quite happy with my purchase, and if theres any interest i'll keep you all updated in regards to running costs economy and all the odds and sods over the next wee while
