I'd have one of these

I had a new one a few years ago (company car) and thought it was excellent. Black isn't the most flattering colour.

Might as well stick with a Jap car ;D

I do like the Audi's!

I have a better idea though! ::) Why not buy a run about for a grand and throw the rest of the cash at the Four...or, listen to this, you will like this....get another Four (or two)! ;)

Am I good or what, might have just saved you a lot of cash there mate. :D

lol..  why would i ruin the buzz of owning a gt4 by buying a 205. ;D 

I already have a v reg vectra as a everyday tool while the 4 gets fettled.. but i'm bored with it.. as soon as i get it back from smithys i'll be using that everyday and keeping the estate for work.. only keeping the misses happy really.!
